Having been deeper in the south of France at Easter I can safely say there is less dereliction where we were around Pau and Bordeaux. There’s plenty of empty properties that have been on the market a while and are starting to fall into a state of disrepair. Most a are still on the market and sealed up hence not really lending themselves to exploring. I came across this place just outside Oloron St.Marie by the road. It was for sale but had clearly been empty for some time. Somebody (thieves no doubt) had smashed a window to gain entry. Passed on climbing through the hole and instead had a quick look round the extensive out houses as this place was formerly a farm. Even though I didn’t get inside the house there’s just about enough shots to merit a report.
Here’s the pictures:
The roof of this big barn wasn’t too hot:

The house itself was small and in decent nick:

An old rusty tractor:

Surely for the animals rather than humans?

Old sign…not too sure what “Fooo agents” are:

A rather nice corner tower:

The obligatory old chair shot:

More overgrown out-houses:
