Sorry for the lack of details about this place, but I've been asked to keep them quiet for now

Explored with _Nyx_

Needless to say the place is in a terrible state, but upon the first sighting of the place, I was in awe!! Actually the 'grandest' place I have 'visited'.

Such a shame that it's been left to 'die'

Anyway, this was actually the fallback on a day of mooching around, having had a series of fails, we decided to give it a go, and thankfully, after a little hike, and minus a pair of leggings, not mine I hasten to add, we made it!

Now for the pics, enjoy

Ooooh yeah, just had a 'google' and it looks great!! love these old Mansions / Manor Houses, although Baron Hill looks to be in slightly better condition than this place, which is totally trashed.
