Not much to tell… another abandoned house in the UK. The previous owner was quite a fan of sewing and large jars of pickled stuff under the stairs… I really liked the bedrooms here! enjoy the photos

A couple more from the trip on my blog: http://www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com/urbex/2013/12/03/urbex-sewing-house-somewhere-in-the-united-kingdom-october-2013/
 
Technically brilliant photographs, but far too contrived for my liking - perhaps that is what the writer of the derogatory comment on the blog was referring to? Today's trend seems to be about recording social and domestic history at the expense of the architectural history containing said objects. Sadly these interior shots give me no indication as to the age of this habitation - 1920's tiled fireplaces, a late Victorian glass paned interior door, very high quality bedroom furniture from the early 1900's and high ceilings with no cornices - the carrot has been dangled, but to no avail as the building is still an enigma to me.

Still it is a very nice find all the same and a pity about the 'Sportsman'.
 
Thanks Dirus, I appreciate the constructive criticism but the only item which was moved on our trip was a chair within the lounge which was out of place with the sofa, everything else was shot as found.

Knowing your work I did not think that you had done the 'set dressing', but unfortunately my real interest is architecture and the ordered nature of the subjects left me wanting.Technically all your work ranks with the best in this subject and I still get much enjoyment from viewing ALL your work.
 
UK? Really? I'm not looking hard enough!
Absolutely stunning place, and your photographs are really atmospheric!
Glad to have read your report! :)
 
Beautiful pictures a truly stunning place. The doll in the mirror gave me the chills!! Thanks for sharing! :-D

That's interesting because surely the lack of dust on the base of the sewing machine in #8 means that the case must of been removed - relatively - lately . . . an earlier explorer?

Now that's just being pedantic......


Nice shots by the way, love them. Must have a good bundle of history to it.
