So, I thought I would do this report in a slightly different format.
Vimy Ridge Farm is located in South Nottinghamshire, and is located at the end of a long drive of poplar trees, planted to the memory of the officers of a local regiment, killed during the famous battle in France.
The farm itself has been derelict since the late 70s. As a child, I used to play in and around the buildings in the early 80s, but since then, there have been a few fires and the farm is now gently returning to nature. There used to be an old Triumph car in the barn, buried in a hay stack, and the house was in much better condition, with paint on the walls and some fixtures still in place.
Still, quite an evocative place to visit - 30 years after my last excursion!
