I'd say that was a self-build that was never finished. I seem to remember there were a lot of those in the 1970s for some reason.
 
I'm trying to make up my mind whether it was never finished, or methodically gutted. I'm leaning towards the former.

Looks a wee bit too close to the river for my comfort. The Trent is notorious for flooding. I wonder if the abandonment of this house was due to an inability to get or renew insurance.

Thought I recognised it. The house was reported on here a couple of years or so ago and those were my exact thoughts then. I seem to recall that someone else posted up the reason why it was abandoned, which wasn't flooding, but I've no idea what the title of the thread was or where to start looking for it.

Lovely pics of it and interesting to see that it's still there and even in a pretty good condition. :)
 
Damn I'm good :D

Looks a nice place where it is, certainly looks like it was never finished to me.
