Charlie's House, Jan 2013 (VERY PICTURE HEAVY)

First off would like to say I have struggled to get the photos down. I have gone from 273 to 65 and now settled on 50ish. If you want me to try and trim it down more please say and also for this reason i have made the pictures smaller as I have no decent photo editing software.

Now onto Charlie's House......

Strolling along the road with my boyfriend, we walk past this and like a puppy that has seen a park i pester to get my chance of a visit (not that it took much pestering ).

No history of this place so a lil bit of delving and guess work has got me with this guess: A fire had taken place in the past couple of years, unsure whether it was abandoned before then or not. Seems like a family home, maybe an old lady who was once an English teacher and in her older age a vivid fan of cooking. With plenty of jars to be found, books and various other home treasures, it was a lovely explore despite the wind making me poop my pants various times at the beginning.

floor boards upstairs werent the greatest, it had pretty much destroyed the walls and the doors upstairs. Downstairs it was just the one room and what we think was old school books in the side room in the attic haad been destroyed.

cheers guys, may have to go for another look, see if we can find more about the owners

Looks like an interesting mooch! fab report!

Nice one looks a great little place with some nice bits left behind
