Large House - RAF Upwood - October 2012

steve2109 · Oct 20, 2012

Came back past RAF Upwood today when I was returning from another recce and noticed this large house that I hadn't seen before, couldn't resist so stopped and had a quick explore. It seems to be 4 large rooms with bathrooms and a kitchen area so I think it may have been Officer accommodation but hoping someone can tell me...

Been past it, but never had the one to pop in! Cool to see it.looks like the vandals haven't bothered with this one then?

Yeh very nice. I love old houses. Bit odd finding a wooden 'fence style' gate inside though eh? Is that a cellar entrance, did you go down?

Could be the CO's house, RAF Harwell had a load of officers houses and the Biggest was the CO's. Lovely looking house seems a shame it's left to get in that state.

Interesting to see this. I've done Upwood myself a few times, but never seen anyone photgraph this place. I've heard it said that it was the base commander's residence when the base was active.

That's lovely shot of the arched door with Autumnal trees behind it. Great fireplaces and a groovy little stove!

Farmerboy · Oct 23, 2012
