Following up on [ame="http://www.derelictplaces.co.uk/main/showthread.php?t=12818"]http://www.derelictplaces.co.uk/main/showthread.php?t=12818[/ame] posted in September 2009, here are a few more pictures of this derelict farmhouse (mainly interior).
This abandoned old farmhouse consists of two separate, self-contained 'units', each with their own kitchen range/scullery and loft space. Apparently the property has been left unrepaired for decades: there are large gaps in the roof where tiles have been blown away, leaving the house open to wind and weather. Consequently some of the upstairs floors have become unsafe, with large gaps affording views into the rooms below. The dwelling had no running water and the heating was provided by open fires. The water pump is still in place a short distance to the north and the remains of a brick outhouse can be found near the north-eastern corner. The house is adjoined by an E-shaped complex of buildings comprising cart sheds, stables and a byre, with a 17th century grade II listed thatched barn completing the range in the west. The farmhouse is not listed.
According to locals the property was acquired by builders with a plan to re-develop, and there are rumors that the buildings are being left unattended on purpose as they are situated on prime development land.
