Fabulous yet very derelict country house owned by Dr Annette Drummond-Rees.The house was split into four apartments many years ago and now have become part of an auction..the strange thing is,only part of the estate is up for auction...it is totally derelict with several floors very dangerous indeed.I can only assume the good Doctor loved collecting things as there are bag upon bag upon bag of china items all tagged with the price she paid,except these bags are simply left on the stairs unopened...there are at least six pianos in various rooms plus old televisions and record players..we saw at least two copies of Blondie`s Parallel Lines vinyl long player.This was for me a bit of a tense explore due to this house being overlooked so making me a little uneasy about getting seen,but hey,we made it,pics all taken and now here for you all to view...I am getting a tad too old for this.Big shout out to DJ Flava and Mark for letting us in on this little gem.Huge Thanks to Matt for asking us along on this one..lets go see the house ok..

Upstairs now..on each stair was a shopping bag containing ornaments bought from charity shops..it seemed the Dr never opened these bags again and put them on the stairs

As you can see

More pianos at the top of the stairs
