Up a creek without wellies
This is The Derelict Places forum and as such is not about buildings that are still in use,,,,,,but I think you will agree that sometimes the lines are blurred.

I've noticed this road-side farm before and intended to stop and take some pics,,,, but as I approached, a guy was walking in the yard so I chickened out,,,,,,, I drove up the road,,, turned round and made slow pass.

This is an ex-farm in the quaintly named Happy Valley in the hills above Aberdovey.

Please forgive the 'orrible pics,,,, I snapped them through the screen and the open window whilst on the move and steering with my knees :mrgreen:

,,,,,no I didn't,,,,my mistake,,,,,,,, that's not legal or safe!!



This is the approach,,, note the collapsing shed and mangled caravan. That'll be a kitchen with propane bottles outside. And a lean-to next to the kitchen window

There's the lean-to,,,, except the walls don't reach the ,,,,,,,mud so I suppose it's better to call it a 'hang-on'. Nice bit of ironwork over the front door with a couple of planters. Nice touch that,,,,,,,,,the flowers would look nice cascading over the doorway,,and would help to keep the flies out of the open door. A chicken on a bit of metal,,, nice rural touch.

Scaffolding,,,,,,,ah! you might think,,,, they are doing some repairs. But that scaffolding has been there for years and is now an integral part of the house

Chickens in the green-house. I expect the holes in the hang-on walls allow them to push the buckets outside without letting in the cold :)

I cannot think of any way that these materials could be arranged in a more chaotic way,,,,,,,so I think the owner is an artist and this is his abstract take on,,,,,,, um,,,,,,Dereliction :)

The top sheds ,,,,,,,,note how the walls don't reach the ,,,,,,um,,,,,,,mud.

It's pretty dry at the moment,,,,,,,,,,,,it rains a lot in Wales :(

OMG I think this is the place I used to go horseriding when I was just a little 'un! That would be 25 years past now, but the big corrugated shed looks just like the indoor riding barn.

Next time in the in area I will popo up & chek if it is!#

Ta for the post!
 
OMG! You get 'Wise Move of the Day' staying in the car! It's pretty rural where I am but that place- cue duelling banjo'e :( I used to think a place had to be ABANDONED to be DERELICT but you have changed my mind. Thanks.
