#abandonedhouse #abandonedplaces
We venture deep into the English countryside. Nestled away in the overgrowth, sits this endearing thatched cottage.
Inside we are greeted by a lifetime of collected items. Countless books, clocks, radios, paintings are on display within the beamed walls of this age old home.
An extensive crowd of fascinating items surround us, closed behind doors, frozen in time.

Donating anything to a Museum only enriches the Government, since they would own and most likely sell those paintings. Museums don't care about the original owners of anything.

The radio you originally thought was a safe is a wartime VHF set as fitted to wartime aircraft. The 'radio' below on the shelf is a a hifi pre amplifier made by Messers HJ Leak & Co in the mid to late 1950's. The model called a Point One Plus. Shame the power amp wasn't there as it's all exposed valves and chokes.

I'm 79 and remember a lot of what you showed us. Unless you found another document from HM The Queen, that gentleman was not knighted. My father had a similar letter. He was a Police taxi-driver, A night fire-watchman, worked at a grain Silo, kept chickens and dug six allotments to help feed the community, but the letter was just a letter of appreciation that many people received. The Mega 'radio' in the little bedroom was not a radio but an electrical measuring device. If you find Bibles in your adventures, look inside the front and back covers because they often showed family details which you could then research by looking at Census records. One of the sheds you found in the garden might have been a 'Dungy' an outside toilet where the occupant would have emptied the caravan Portaloo toilet you found in the cottage. Thanks for making the video it brought back many memories and was very interesting.

Nice vid. When I studied at Oxford, I took an architectural archeology class where we studied the history of estate homes. This manor is beautiful. Not sure if the owner had died and had no family to pass it onto or nobody wanted it. There are so many artifacts there from the books, furniture, paintings, clocks, etc. that should be in a local historical society, library or museum before it is destroyed my vandals or water damage. The home itself looks amazing as well, from the thatched roof to timber used. Once the roof begins to leak, water damage begins as it looks like it already has in one part. The back buildings and trailer is interesting as nature takes it back. Great job on the filming, music and editing. Especially the show parts to view more deeply with background music. Thank you for sharing. Cheers!

Clock turners lathe in the first part. it amazes me how many valuable things are going to rot. So much culture so much history. I know people bash hoarders but they will value things more than you could ever know and it won’t be because of money. It would look like Faberge egg on the piano, medieval chest. This was a man of taste. I really wonder what happened to these people? We don’t have a housing crisis we have an information processing crisis. So much heritage will be lost. If everyone pulled together homeless would end just by filling these vacant property. I know there would be a number of hurdles especially if the owner is in care. I wonder if a caretaker branch of the housing office would take up the mantle. I know there are plenty of ruins that can be brought back to life. Awesome find. It should remind us how unaware we are to how others have lived. And the plights of many old buildings. Definitely a radio operator home.

My granny lived through the depression here in the US and had a tendency to save everything and reuse and find a use for absolutely everything. When someone lives through or grows up during a time of rationing food and items, they can sometimes have a hard time of letting go of things…everything has a use. It was lovely seeing that house.

Not sure if I misunderstood what you were saying, but there are actually thousands upon thousands of these sorts of cottages in the English countryside (except in good condition). I am in the process of restoring a half-timbered one myself of a similar age (early 1400s), in a small Suffolk village. Depending on what area of England you are in will alter whether the building will be thatched or not, built of stone or timber, decorated with colour, brick or pargeting... for example I grew up on the edge of the Cotswolds region in Gloucestershire (Western England), and all the villages over there are built with warm honey-coloured stone and topped with limestone slated roofs, now that I’m in Suffolk (Eastern England) the villages are completely different and have an abundance of brightly coloured half-timbered buildings with thatched roofs. It really just depends on the area.

Yes it is in the English countryside and the architecture of the building is very common for medieval cottages in rural England (stone/ half-timbered [brick would have been a later edition] and a thatched roof), you do not find thatched buildings in France whereas there are thousands in England (especially in the South-West, East and Central regions).

Wow, really loved this one... In a way it's so sad to see that once the occupant left, he outlived any relatives who may have came to at least clear out the food and sentimental items... And you can see that the house and belongings were well cared for and tidily kept considering how much is packed in. Maybe the darkness of the house has helped to preserve the paintings, photos and books. Seems he may have outlived his wife by many years... He doesn't appear to have been wealthy to me, just a person who took care of what he had and enjoyed upcycling, collecting and reusing older items. Thanks for saving the butterflies, I would have done the same. A true time capsule. And that garden... An explore in itself.

From Kentucky and I love watching you both! I grew up eating Grape Nuts. They were considered health food at the time. 60s-70s. Like very plain granola.

These places seem too newly abandoned. What's going on. I'm truly surprised by the preservation of these places. I truly hope no one comes and destroys these treasures.

@Samandjessexplore 3 жыл бұрын

They stay preserved as long as nobody hands the exact location out, otherwise they can sit there for years like this, untouched. It’s mind blowing just how many there are just within the UK. We really hope this place stays safe too… Thank you for watching 🙏🏼

Wow! What an interesting person that would have lived here, an amateur Radio operator? Or maybe a Radio operator in the RAF during the war? The large painting of a Lancaster Bomber, along with the short wave radios and books on short wave radio give clues as to a possible past, the style of clothes along with the calendar on the lounge indicate it was a man of ageing years, maybe the right age to have served in WWII? Yes I used to eat Smiths salt and shake.

They don’t make stuff like this anymore that’s for sure. So classy, Classic and beautiful. Thank you 🙏 both so much for sharing such a beautiful location with beautiful unique items from our past. Much Love 💕 to you both. Blessed Be. 🙏🖤 🧙🏼‍♀️ 💋

There are too many breadcrumbs here not to think there's something more than meets the eye, Also, what makes you confident youre exploring something abandoned and not just unoccupied? What if a child or grandchild revisits once every few years, symbolically leaving tokens of life carrying on when visiting? Its good that you are respectful, and Im fascinated, but I question if this is true urbex exploring, or just noble trespassing. My son suspects something far more sinister may be afoot.

Evening Mac! These houses we visit have usually been left abandoned for at least 5 years, often many more. They are totally untouched and we are often some of the first people to visit them after all the years of sitting there, I can understand its hard to believe that places like this exist but I’ve seen many of them now, its always very apparent that they are long abandoned when you are actually there. We have seen these types of places in every stage if their abandonment, we recently visited a beautiful house similar to this where the ceiling had began to fall in… it wont stand for much longer then its gone forever. We enjoy these places, we film them and leave, we never give out locations, therefor this house won’t be visited as a result of us or our video. It still blows our minds that so many houses get left this way, but all it really takes is a owner with no one to leave it too, an incomplete will etc. Thank you for your questions!
