Now this one was a somewhat pain in the arse.. spent ages trying to find a way in, and eventually we found it! Celebrations were soon cut short though, as the only door through to the rest of the house was locked - doh!:dunno2: Back outside we went, and began the search again. Soon enough we found a way in, and damn was it worth it! This place had been untouched for years. It was clear the previous resident was a bit of a hoarder, especially with newspapers - almost enough to fill a room! She also had a lot of owl ornaments, hence the name. In case anyone notices - some parts are blurred, was some dead giveaways to the location otherwise!:lol:

All credit goes to a fellow explorer for finding this one - was an amazing place:D

What a find. But this house needs some serious repair work done to it. A lot of dampness, soggy walls apart from that its a nice house. Maybe the relatives have been in to look for insurance policies but decided that there's so much stuff that they don't have room for it. The living room looks like ready for someone coming home.

Yeah damp is definitely starting to set in. It's funny you mention that, as we actually found a mobile phone on a table that was switched on - weird!

Wow! That's strange. A case of like ships passing in the night. You nipping out and them coming back in without seeing each other.
 
This has got to be one of the best houses with bits and bobs that I have seen so far :) and it looks amazing - I could spend hours looking around there! I bet you had a great time, and you got some amazing pictures!

Your very informative photographs clearly show that this place has had recent visitors - but the 'mess' seen, is of the type produced by relatives/friends searching and not your local vandal/yob. Given that certain commercial items would seem to indicate an occupancy after the clearly obvious 2000, this property must have been in dire need of structural maintenance for many years. Nice report - I always like looking 'into' photographs that contain masses of details/objects, allows one to get a pretty good insight into lifestyle of the last occupier/s. This would have been an expensive property in its day, the internal fittings and wood/plaster work are first rate.
