Hi there guys...

Wondering if anyone can shed a bit of light on an abandoned farm building my boyfriend and I came across today.

We were out walking near 'The Wizard' pub in Alderley Edge, Cheshire. Came across a massive site with a farm building, outhouse (with disused swimming pool) and several derelict farm buildings. The house was all boarded up, windows, doors etc & nothing looked like it had been touched in a good few years.

If you search postcode SK10 4UB on google maps/earth you will see the buildings to the right of the pub reference on the map.

Really curious about this place & would love any info on what happened here.

May be worth a look.

Thanks!:lol:
 
Why not go back and take some pics, and post them up.

Google is your friend. Try local newspaper archives, or even better, pop into that pub for a few sharpeners and be nosey! What's the worst that can happen? You might be told to piss off.
 
It's the old home of Selina Place and the witches of the Morthbrood!!

Brilliant book, I got a copy when I was about 8 or 9 and it thoroughly entranced me for years.
A few years ago I visited the area and was absolutely thrilled to see some of the features and landmarks mentioned in the book. The mines have featured on at least one of these UrbEx sites (on here back in January --> http://www.derelictplaces.co.uk/main/showthread.php?t=21179&highlight=Alderly+edge )

Probably of no help at all! ;)


P.S. 40 years on I still have the book :)

Edge house farm you mean>?

If so get it and surrounding areas checked out, at least 2 of the gold bars found locally were in that locality, plus potential for unmarked shafts/adits associated with the coppermines.
