House of Ivy - October 2015

jsp77 · Oct 3, 2015

This was once a lovely house, usual fire places etc, pretty empty, large shed out the back and the side and rear of the house totally covered in ivy.
Sadly there is not history to be found on this one.

Great find mate,

shame the usual lot found it first.

The ivy hides the cottage nicely, I liked it, Thanks

Condition of roof appears sound - but the interior walls and ceilings tell a different tale. That ivy growth is well established and will be causing havoc with the brickwork/pointing. The fireplace in photo 8 has obviously got a well blocked chimney, but it is nice to see a floor laid with proper floorboards produced from proper timber. Nice set of photos here.

Ah, The 'adoration of the Magi, by Rubens,I was wondering where that had gone

Very nice that jsp

HughieD · Oct 3, 2015

Nicely photographed that.

This is a well hidden place. Nice one jsp77

Thanks for the kind comments, yes this is really hidden and quite dry inside. You have to fight your way through the undergrowth to access the barn. Nice explore though.

So why is it called the Ivy Hous....oh I see!
Fantastic report. I doubt it'll be long before that really starts to crumble so you done well to document it as it is.
Thanks for sharing

Lol, I've been in that Sex room on my first visit here, and then had to fight to keep out of it on my second visit with Lady Pandora

UE-OMJ · Oct 5, 2015

Did you see the bones and skulls in the out-house?

LadyPandora · Oct 5, 2015

You should be so lucky.
Yeah, the outhouse was oddly my favourite part
