ABANDONED Retro House! (Met Another Explorer!)

[@gregorymarkjones3870]

Hey Lee Great to meet you .... sorry I scared you ..! Apparently there was a couple that lived here and they had no family .. the wife died about 20 years ago and the man lived there on his own until he died a couple of years ago . I found some photos from last year and the house was packed full of items so someone had obviously cleared the place out Cheers Greg

[@LeeRielly]

NIce to meet you too mate, it was just unexpected haha.That's weird if the guy lived there until not long ago yet still had food stuff since the 90s 😮

[@Krafty]

Man, I love how you started this video off. The drone footage, the music, fucking awesome. Looking forward to more from you!

[@SueGirling68]

Hey Ley that tea holder had a picture of Queen Elizabeth II when she was a little girl with the older lady being the Queen Mother. The stripes (markings) on the persons Army uniform is a Corporal ;), A great video, well done you xx

[@LeeRielly]

Thanks a lot for that info, was unsure on exactly who it was! Glad you enjoyed it 😀 xx

[@SueGirling68]

No worries glad I could help out ;-) x

[@SueGirling68]

Sorry Lee just realised my stupid tablet spelt your name wrong :(.

[@helenweedon7716]

Yes, its all the Royal Family when the Princess Elizabeth and Princess Margaret were young girls.

[@modelogic101]

💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖 I love it! This is like an absolute timewarp! You did a great job!

[@Country_Girl63]

The "log burner," is how they used to cook. Awesome find!

[@JoShadeReads]

Hey! Yet another awesome video! i love seeing places like this one, there's something strangely beautiful about seeing how the passage of time causes decay. it reminds me a lot of my grandparents house i remember visiting when i was younger! x

[@denisesmith6547]

Lee, I could listen to you talk all day but what I really want to say is that you are very talented as a video maker. I'm enjoying your vids tremendously. The sites are truly extraordinary. Thank you for sharing.

[@GSR600Relaxed]

Awesome video! Love watching them as there are very few abandoned places in my home country. Especially loved the ancient product packaging.

[@LeeRielly]

I'm glad you enjoyed the video, where are you from?

[@GSR600Relaxed]

I'm from Switzerland, so space is quite limited and old houses get repurposed quickly.

[@vickinoeske1711]

Oh - that funky green bathroom & floral wallpaper is just awesome.

[@vickinoeske1711]

First time viewer & it was a great exploration. Love retro stuff.

[@Lockhartisminecraft]

That bathroom really made that place, it just looks amazing!

[@LeeRielly]

It really was awesome!

[@ReaperGz]

Always making top quality videos bro! Keep up the good work!

[@LeeRielly]

You da real MVP 👊

[@donnabolton9787]

Hey Lee. I loved the wedding photo, I could see how the family went through the day. For sure the small kitchen and bath! The wallpaper peeling makes for such awesome photos. I just enjoyed that small cozy home! Thank you.

[@BCaldwell]

After all the trouble you've had making the last couple of videos, This was well worth the wait! That tea tin was decorated with pictures of British monarchs and a very young Queen Elizabeth. Nice work finding this little gem. I can't wait until the next one! Always a pleasure. ...Brian

[@LeeRielly]

Thanks a lot Brian mate, that means a lot! 🙂 I was very happy with this one, despite being small it was VERY interesting and spent a good amount of time here.

[@debrafreeman1729]

This was my first time seeing your videos. I loved it! I am from the U.S. and got a chuckle when I recognized the Queen as a young girl on the tea tin. I like your dialogue & appreciation of the old stuff. thanks!

[@LeeRielly]

Thanks Debra! Glad you enjoyed the video, it took me a second to click that it was The Royals!

[@jvatell6111]

Great video and i love the "Bonus Clips" addition! The gentleman looked like he had been a corporal in the army and the photo looks to have been taken between the 1930's- early 1940's. You "young nippers" wouldn't remember those food items and furnishings (most houses had only a bathtub and no shower)...I grew up with them and things older than that. Everything was in glass, cardboard boxes or tins...no plastic at all and things were shipped in wooden crates (with straw inside) and barrels. Coal was a big source of heating still and just by the stove in the kitchen (burrrrr). Oh how times have changed...and this is in the USA.

[@LeeRielly]

Oh nice, thanks Jim! Quite an old photograph then, if it was the people who lived in this house then there's a good chance they could've just passed with old age and the house just being left which is a great shame 😞 Glad you enjoyed the video! 😀

[@jvatell6111]

That's exactly what I feel happened and yes...very sad that no one carried on for them at their lovely home.

[@patriciapearl2529]

Love this video, great home;) I love your accent too, it sounds amazing!

[@MarkVernon]

it amaze's me how you find these places ! an enchanting video to watch.

[@LeeRielly]

As I showed in last week's video, it can be hard to find them, luckily this one was a little gem 😀

[@AppalachianPythons78]

What a great find! The retro items were just amazing!! And I wanted to Thank You for pausing to capture that Koala , they have been my favorite animals since childhood! :-)

[@rosaliebarry5995]

I really liked the bathroom especially the tub. It seemed extra long. Thanks for the great video!.

[@VixOfAllTrades]

Brilliant. Again, loving your work!

[@LeeRielly]

That's what I like to hear! Thanks 😀

[@linall2345]

Really enjoyed this one Lee. Loving your intros and the bloopers at the end. Lol. Some of that food looks way older than 1999. LOVE that bathroom!!

[@LeeRielly]

I'm glad you enjoyed those new segments 😀

[@marilyndenler1370]

Neat tea tin with the pictures of the royal family. Queen Elizabeth as a little girl:) great video!

[@lisaautolitano5517]

I love the retro food and the bathroom. I have found old retro spice tin's.

[@RubyTuesdayJB]

The little girl on the tea caddy is the queen..I'm like 99% sure x

[@LeeRielly]

I thought that when I got a closer look 🙂

[@RubyTuesdayJB]

Yeah I'm sure it's the Queen and her mother, father (King George) and her sister xx

[@RubyTuesdayJB]

Great video though, keep up the good work!

[@donnabolton9787]

Thank you Lee! Great, great video! Wonderful find. That was a lot of fun!! xo

[@LeeRielly]

Glad you enjoyed it Donna, what was your favourite part? x

[@paulineshelton8527]

Hi Lee, Just read through the comments, the tea 'box' is a cabby as pointed out with the Queen as a young girl and the rest of the family. The fire place would have burned coal and next to it was the oven. Gran's house that I lived in, had a front room just straight from the pavement and the back room was everything else (toilet out the back joined to the wash house and shared with next door),back room kitchen - no - stool with basin on under a cold tap for the sink, cooker in the corner, black lead range for hot water, extra oven and heating, two bedrooms and that's your lot, so your house wasn't that small really. This was called a miner's cottage, Great vid again, Next please , thanks x

[@bamspov]

Another amazing find! Great video! 😊

[@LeeRielly]

Thank you, glad you enjoyed this one, it was a gem 😁

[@patmurphy389]

lee, at 2:44 that is an old cooker-it probably used to be the kitchen until they moved it to the other room/it looked like in the new kitchen they had a place for a wood burning stove or cooker/that's why the old kitchen had all those cupboards/pantries ect...nice find & ty for the video!

[@christinegatto7426]

Lee Rielly, you are good at what you do. I like your commentary!

[@LeeRielly]

Thanks Christine! - Glad you enjoyed 😀

[@daverees8644]

Farm houses and cottages i like, this is a good find.

[@LL-sq8se]

This was a very great video! So interesting!👍🏻😄🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🙋🕊️

[@simonabbott7323]

The tiled fireplace is typical of the period around the 1950's. Bathroom too. That roof design is quite common in older buildings, which makes maximum use of the roofspace. Common in 1950's/ 60's dormer bungalows too.

[@robertedwards1811]

the man in the picture in the uniform was a corporal great video love watching you looks like ww2 uniform might be ww1

[@williamradford9631]

Interesting old house that was abandoned for a long time. Lovely old rosy patterned wallpaper in the bathroom

[@BillieJean327]

Hello from the U.S.! I'm a new subbie, I've always wondered how you guys manage to find these places? You are one of my favorites! Love your vids please keep them coming 😘.

[@LeeRielly]

I made a video called "How to find abandoned places" if you would like to find out how we find them 😊 - Thanks for your support 😀

[@allym1212]

hi lee riley enjoyed ur video that house looked amazing x

[@LeeRielly]

Thank you Alison, glad you enjoyed it!

[@dragonflyer7504]

Hi Lee, Truly enjoying your video's. It's kind of funny that the house has a old box of Corn Flakes in it. The reason why I say that is because I live only 20min from the Official Kellogg Cereal Company where they make Corn Flakes along with many other cereals. Not to mention where the original "Tony Tiger " is from. Kellogg Company is in Battle Creek Michigan, USA which the city is known as " Cereal City USA". This is because we have two other major cereal company in the same town, one it "Post Cereal" and the other is "Ralston Cereal Company". As you drive through town you can get a smell of what cereal's they are making for the day. Sorry did not mean to take up your time, just was surprised when you showed the box of corn flakes. If you have a chance look up Kellogg Company it's a great place. Thank you again for a great video.

[@LeeRielly]

We do have Corn Flakes over here and Kelloggs branded cereal but it was mainly the old style packaging which was amazing to see, I haven't seen boxes like that for as long as I can remember :)

[@MsCripplex]

The oven. Was either wood or coal stove to heat or cook with. People still use them because in colder weather they serve a dual purpose and they are beautiful. The bathroom is amazing it’s Assad the house is left to die when some work could bring it back but it’s not a new home but better built then today’s, be safe!

[@jameshamil1628]

Great Video.

[@XX-yz6hu]

Great video Lee, as always!. It does make you think of the couple that once lived there and all the memories the house must hold. Do you ever pick up on 'atmospheres'?

[@LeeRielly]

Thanks for your kind words Katie! I do sometimes pick up on weird vibes, I did at this one too but it was more the intrigue of what happened and where the owners have gone to...

[@jessyh2044]

I absolutely adored that old fireplace in the beginning ! this place has so many neat old things left inside! Have you ever felt like you weren't alone while in one of these abandoned houses?👻👻👻👻

[@LeeRielly]

It was cool wasn't it?! I do quite often to be honest, it usually takes me a little while to get settled into a place before I can fully relax, turns out at this one I wasn't alone! haha.

[@iliketowatchvideos47]

hi lee great vids keep it up xx

[@karen4you]

Older homes were fitted with bathrooms, usually a bedroom was sacrificed to be the bath. Nice find.

[@michaelledford4751]

The food products that look super strange to you were sent to the home in the mail box ,from the 1950's to mid 1980's product manufacturers would send free" single serve" samples to every home in a zip code on the same day . Back in 1976 my wife & I received 64 single serving ceral boxes on July 1st from Kellogg, every cereal sample was unheard of test products like " crunchy logs " and " stars and stripes " which never went into production ,we still have all 64 boxes of that test market cereal in our storage locker . I've been collecting vintage Americana since 1957 and have 5 climate controlled storage lockers full of what I've collected ,4 lockers are 15x15 and are full of packed away items ,the 5th locker is 30x30 & is set up with floor to ceiling shelves of vintage stereo electronics and 14 pairs of late 1950's to mid 1960's stereo speakers ,one day I'm going to invite every KZbin explorer channel to my business and allow everybody to film my collection ,my son & I mapped it out & were thinking we could display everything in 17 storage lockers In a row after everything is unboxed ,were hoping to invite all explorers at Christmas time this year so everybody can do a big vintage explore in a warm well light building .

[@darrenmarshall4946]

The long Grey cabinet is for guns

[@helenweedon7716]

You can tell a bit about the age of the food boxes by the currency of the price on them. Anything after 1970 will be in pounds and new pence (p), before that, like the tea on the mantlepiece, in shillings and old pence(d). I was impressed that not only did the house have indoor toilet and bathroom, but that they were upstairs too. The tiled fireplace that you liked could have been 1930s/40s but more likely 1950s.

[@luckyme398]

great job Lee . hope you have more luck like this ! keep up the great job .

[@LeeRielly]

Thanks man, much appreciated!

[@IAmKye]

That safe you saw was a gun cabinet, it's still there because they have to be bolted to the wall. Its unlikely but there's a possibility that there is a gun left in there ☺️

[@LeeRielly]

Yeah I thought it was a weird shape for a safe! - That would be crazy if there was still a gun in there! 😯

[@Lifeguruonafence]

I think that tall metal box is a gun cabinet?

[@maxlane3772]

I swear this place looks like somewhere I explored before. Near Langsett/Peniston? If so, theres a really cool engineers workshop worth checking out next door.

[@GhostvaperYT]

3:59 = QUEEN ELIZABETH II !!!

[@collidingplanetsexploring6630]

Hi Lee. Love your channel, i will take a good look through it. Im explorer myself, I've subscribed.

[@hellomcflyy]

Id snag those old food boxes before they get any more chewed on -those are pretty awesome! -

[@ZXGamingReal]

nice fam!!

[@Gunzee]

Really love the old food packets, sad when people take things. Not only is it respect but others get to see older and rare items, sadly if it's not bolted down it'll be stolen. Also the Lady in the picture around 4 minutes looks very masculine. It could be the reason why they were alone, she' taller than him. He's far from a small guy so imagine how big she was

[@angelaunderwoodyoung3898]

Thanks !

[@vickypotts3221]

do you have another job aswell Lee?it's a shame u can't do it full time like some of the other explorers, come on guys let's get Lee up to a million subscribers he's 1 of the best by far , very professional and enthusiastic

[@LeeRielly]

Vicky Potts Thank you very much for that Vicky 🙂, I'm a student unfortunately and just doing this on the side, I'll be graduating in July so unless I can somehow turn this into an actual income then I'll probably have to stop the videos in a few months when I get a job. Thanks for all of your support so far 😃

[@vickypotts3221]

Lee Rielly no way Lee don't stop doing it u cant! some of these guys are travelling the world with this as a full time job u should b too your so good at this stuff never give up 😞

[@LeeRielly]

Vicky Potts Trust me, it'd be my dream to do this full time but if I have to get a "normal" 9-5 job then there won't really be any time for exploring and making videos unfortunately 😞, we'll see how it goes over the next few months, I won't go down without a fight 🙂

[@vickypotts3221]

Lee Rielly u should b travelling USA and more it's such a pisser , Hope all goes well my friend x

[@salmanhabib2953]

great video

[@seasonroberts5470]

Bigger rooms back then look at the views landscape I lived in England for awhile u have to live I. The country to get the feel of old England

[@Lockhartisminecraft]

#RefreshSquad Only came in now but it says it was uploaded 3 mins ago... sure it'll be a sick video though!

[@lverity5852]

The tea tin - pictures of the royals Elizabeth II as a young girl, young Margaret, Queen Mother, King George VI.

[@lesman200059]

that metal cabinet is a gun cabinet for yes you got it guns the man in picture is first ww as pointed out be for

[@garbage854]

Cool :)

[@TypicalBambi]

From what I can tell the guy from the photo has a rank of "Silver 2", quite a low rank but at least he served against evil. if you know, you know

[@divineeyeobserver754]

Hmmmm was it the zionists, the bankers, the church, the corporations, big pharma?

[@derekcoe9633]

Gun locker 👍

[@reggief50]

Looks like the man in the photo has lost a hand!

[@wkeith96]

quite humorous, the home is not long uninhabited and a young millennial thinks it's "old retro". A paper post-it note, modern packaged foodstuffs etc. The windows need to be buttoned up to slow the weathering process.

[@musicandstuff7022]

It’s near the abandoned mansion/school

[@LeeRielly]

Blader 234 it’s not even in the same country 😂

[@kieran8855]

Where is it or is there anywhere cool to explore

[@seasonroberts5470]

Your so funny that's the royal family lol hahaha
