The House of Memories, Gloucestershire July '12

An ordinary 1900s(ish) semi-detached house, in an ordinary street, in an ordinary city. Been empty since the mid 90s going by the 1995 calender found pinned to a wall. Unlike pretty much anywhere else I've seen before.

It first popped up last year, and until recently I was under the impression it had been cleared and sold. Oh how wrong I was...



































I picked what I thought were the best ones for the thread, the rest (a lot!) can be seen here http://www.flickr.com/photos/mookie427/sets/72157630701612596/

Amazing...
Almost everything is older than me

Now that is a nice looking place! Crazy to see these sorts of places, just looks like somebody stepped outside one day and never returned!

Cheers for posting, great pics as always dude!

Great detailed pics, must have been very interestin moochin about...luv these little time capsules, hope to find one oneday!

thanks for sharing

Amazing! Lovely shots of this 'little gem'...

Amazing, when I'm home from work I'll be checking out the rest of that album on your flickr. These are the places that draw me into urbex, but they are soooo rare...

Omg look at the jars, and the stamps, and the tins! OMG look at the books!
Wow, crooked house squared, love it! It goes to show its probably too easy to pass places like this on the way to an 'epic asylum' and just pass it off.
Hats off for the find, and the lovely photos.

Gloucester you say? Don't dig up the cellar floor then!

Nice finbd, nice pics... just... nice!

Christmas puddings?!

That's mind numbingly fantastic. Hats off to ya mate :notworthy:

Nice find, i think the postman should have given up when the mail reached 3 inches in height

I remember this place popping up last year with no details. Great shots though & great place also

Very nice find & photos ! thanks for sharing

To quote a very over-used phrase...nice find!! It genuinely is, not seen anything this perfect in a while. Thanks for sharing

How can you be sure no one has been in it, it seems to look clean in some respects to have been left alone since 90s

Quality find I would have loved to have mooched about for a couple of hours

The owner has checked up on it very infrequently for the past 17 years, there has been stuff removed by him and stuff added by him, a de-humidifier was introduced a few years back as well but it's long since been turned off.
