Someone said "it's a bit Chernobyl like in that manor r kid" - so splore's n mooches away we go, only to find this whole day full of counter lulz.

1) - my so-called "mate" put the wrong address in the satnav - delaying us by 2 hours
2) - an angry farmer turned up, and kicked us out.
3) - we were stalked by evil urbexers, saw and heard them talking in the kitchen, we hopped it upstairs ninja stylee, waited for them to go, accept they had the awesome idea of LOCKING the door to one of the rooms. why?!
4) - the place is haunted. I was hardcore, my mate cried like a baby ;) loud bangs (when it wasn't windy), laughter, shadows, groans, and the like, should've bought Mr Bellwood and Morris along, they'd have sorted em' out for us!

history? it's a grade 2 listed building, 250 years old I believe - I believe the last person to live there died 2002, although difficult to tell - dates of stuff inside are all over the place - from 1913 on postcards, to 2009 on medication. It's condition is getting worse, someone needs to go back and tidy up a bit!

nice find and cool pics the car I believe is a morris marina (not a minor) and the last pic you were unsure if it was a photo or a painting could be both shot in b/w then they coloured it in by hand (my gran had one)
