OVER 100 YEARS OF HISTORY LEFT FROZEN IN THIS ABANDONED HOUSE

[@Kay-mz8hc]

It should be a crime not to save the contents. What an Amazing house. Also I'd love going into houses myself. How amazing 👏

[@owl418]

I could never visit a place like this, I wouldn't be able to resist taking just about everything since I have no self-restraint when it comes to antiques. Thank you for documenting this.

[@unalunar7362]

Same here I would too. No point just leaving it to molder.

[@unalunar7362]

I'd take a bloody truck lol

[@karinst.germain4536]

I love it when there is some kind of history given of the people and house

[@janicebowie4738]

Another absolute gem. How sad to think that those treasured possessions will be lost for ever. Meg was there children a can't mind what you said. Well done both of you. ♥️♥️

[@melindawakley7859]

The word to describe this house is Grand. And these ppl invested very early in very high quality antique furniture. Clearly the son was a train/railway fanatic. So sad that the house hasn’t been inherited. Surely there are relatives on both the mother and father’s side. That would inherit a share of this house and contents. If they only knew the son had died.

[@philipmcdonagh1094]

Its a petty about the legal minefield in the UK when it comes to property-wills and probate, the amount of places that end up going to wreck and ruin as a result is a shame.

[@lindastone679]

I think the first Front Room may have been a Doctors office because the First aid case you looked at first looed more like an old fashioned Doctors Bag, there were Anatomy books and Blood Pressure machine. Just a thought.

[@juanitawest976]

What a beautiful home. Exquisite furnishings. It's a shame all these things are just left to go to ruin. Thanks for showing these abandoned homes.

[@sarahstrong7174]

Super extremely interesting time-capsule. Thankyou for showing us.

[@andy2625]

Hey Chris & Megan, first of all thanks for the shout out on the video, it really made me laugh!! 😂Although there was a lot of alcohol in there (I'm sure I saw Megan swaying slightly!!) 🤣Wow what a house all those fantastic antiques, especially those grandfather clocks. The pictures & paintings were beautiful, I love the old black & white photos at the end, they were stunning. I really hope the undesirables don't get in & trash the place, I really think that house & the contents need to be saved especially with all those antigues in there. You really did a great video on this place, fantastic. Stay safe & can't wait for the next video. Love you guys. Andy. 👍😊👍

[@thomascamp8132]

Awsome house

[@Explomo]

Incredible find! You did a great job showing it 👌🏼

[@BackInTimeMC]

Thanks, means alot coming from a channel like yourselves

[@tracethomasvickers2224]

That was the best so far since I’ve started fallowing you👌🏽

[@catherinefong8143]

Nice episode,love the house,hope someone will come out and fix the house to its former glory soon.

[@sarahsulivan4546]

The cannon is fantastic! How sad to know they all died!

[@rossfindlay2664]

What an awesome place! Everything in that house is extremely beautiful and extremely expensive. What a shame that it could all be left to decay and go to waste. Places like that are incredibly rare here in Australia.

[@franwebb2088]

Oh my god chris and Megan what a fantastic house, what a find. I hope no one else finds it. This so needs to stay this way. I couldn't take my eyes off of this one so much lovely stuff. A shame that it's left to rot away with no one to care for it. I'm soost for words on this house I loved every minute of it. Well done guys for such a wonderful find ❤

[@ourreg]

looks like the electric was still on.....there was a red light on the heater in the main bedroom......

[@ianhosier4042]

I wonder who pays the bill?

[@shelleywright7387]

All that furniture needs to be in a museum

[@nigelstringerNVS]

Keep up the good work and enjoy your introduction Meg on videos.

[@BlytheWorld1972]

Wow another new video Cant wait to watch this fab couple .

[@carolyn8599]

Best one you have done , loved it 😍

[@brendagilliland5602]

Hi first time viewer and I absolutely love this house so much beautiful thing's and at the end those photos were amazing its just a shame they will never be looked at again but you two stay safe xx

[@clairehowell3951]

Looked like a Drs box & blood pressure machine back in the day it reminded me when I was a kid & the Dr visited you at home !!!! Great explore guys fantastic house thank you

[@775juju]

Always enjoys your explores ..this one was great well done 👍 just to think this was once someone’s pride and joy so sad to see when they get left and forgotten about 😔 x

[@noraelson8548]

Thank you for this video,It was amazing. So much left behind. Makes me wonder why they couldn't give it all away. 🎶🎶🐦🌻🌻🌲🌲🌼☮️

[@roomullan3050]

Ok so, the funny things in the first little drawer Megan opened were picture hanging hooks, they hung from the picture rail. The knives and forks in the box were not silver but electro plated (that had its own type hall mark). Fabulous video as always. Xx

[@sarahsulivan4546]

This house is truly stunning!

[@lotusdolphin]

Absolutely fascinating! All the bits and bobs discovering who these people were. Looks like a Doctor Who traveled. Also a painter there were paint brushes so maybe some of the paintings around there were his. Certainly had a lot of incredible pieces. Beautiful furniture. Just kind of breaks my heart that nobody is cares enough to get their belongings out. It’s just going to crumble to dust with the house. Very intelligent people that live there. Would’ve loved to of sat down and had conversation with them. That last wardrobe didn’t even have an inch clearance from the ceiling I wonder how they got it in there. The leather top hat box was interesting. Too bad you couldn’t of opened it it would’ve nice to see if it still had it in there. If he was a doctor that would explain why there’s so many tapes around. They really look like they had a good happy life. This was such a good One. One of my favorite so far. They had to be filthy rich to have built-in wardrobe‘s that was just unheard of. In the kitchen they had all the latest and greatest of the time. Thank you so much! Hope you’re well were able To get out of there before the cops came.

[@traceysuggers2201]

Beautiful house it’s a shame that no one else can look after it as they say there is history to it and why sometimes and may the family always be in peace

[@Kaz-ey6en]

What a lovely pic of that lady x fab house fab find x

[@aliciaenriquez6430]

Its amazing that some of this places have such beautiful pieces of furniture in them and this places for sure won’t be save such ashame👍👍🇺🇸❤️❤️

[@kimciesielski8279]

Absolutely amazing!

[@NinfaCarpentergeorgia198]

I love the oak coffer in the entrance hall!!!

[@sarahstrong7174]

That 'make-up desk' is an old fashioned wash-stand, from before people had indoor plumbing. People used to manage with a jug & basin in their bedroom. If they were lucky. Others got a sloosh under a backyard pump or a dip in the local stream.

[@mmmurrayme2006]

You did Great! loving the energy you and Megan are enjoying expressing your true Passion in what you do! Am fully Subscribed and enjoying your uploads! Love watching from New Zealand with LOve

[@claireanderson4642]

There's a strange mix of old and new in the house, like a sophisticated alarm system, 2015 calendar, and the stair lift. Then you have an old black and white TV and a DVD player. It's mad but very intriguing

[@jonie1968]

Those hooks in the top draw of the cabinet are used for hanging pictures from a picture rail Great explore, what an amazing house

[@vernonsanders371]

knowing an understanding what your looking at will make these explores for u even better

[@catherinelalla-duckworth8219]

The Blue Willow China is very old I had some like it was my great great grandmother from France also the silver silverware with pearl handles I have exact set was my great great grandmothers set even wood box they are in is same I live in USA but I love you guys !

[@siamsadie]

So many valuable items I’ve recognized, terrible they’re being left to rot.

[@karinadebbage5452]

I’m sorry but I’m 54yrs old...when watching you’re vids, and I’m new to you’re website, no disrespect, It makes me laugh when I see something that I know what it is, and you’re asking for anyone who has a clue on these things!!! It’s lovely to watch, and all the great features are amazing 😉, don’t want to be patronising, you can’t put an old head on young shoulders.... I look forward to you’re next video...🙏🐾🦊🥰

[@marklittler784]

Really love full glass front doors they really introduce a tremendous amount of light to a property making it a much more pleasant experience living in. You can always bolt a fancy metal grating to it for added security.

[@daleleeder3534]

Wow what a stunning property, absolutely in love with it, just want to grab a book and sit and read by a nice roaring fire, I could spend months in that house 😂 thankyou both great videos as always, you never fail to impress

[@sarahstrong7174]

That cylindrical leather case in the bedroom almost certainly contained a gentlemans top-hat.

[@annaassk7138]

That chair bought from a castle of europe what a great chair,

[@victoriasmith2143]

Absolutely amazing 48. 37 mins in electric radiator is on next to bed. maybe someone is living there electricity is running somewhere in the building x

[@ianhosier4042]

Weird how the alarm in the hallway, the washer and fridge are ultra modern yet everything else is really old. Possibly a Freeview box under the TV but I don't understand why the son didn't update the TV at the same time - that TV set looks ancient! It would be quite funny if he was watching Freeview in black and white and hadn't realised we had gone to colour but at least his TV license would be cheap! Are those covid masks at 42:45????!!! Wonder who pays the bill for that heater that is switched on in the last bedroom? There are a few other electrical neons on too.

[@NinfaCarpentergeorgia198]

The top drawer in the beautiful cabinet is full of picture rail molding hooks. They are used to hang framed artwork from picture molding that runs around a room a foot or so down from the ceiling.

[@NinfaCarpentergeorgia198]

At 38:50, that is a linen press, those are getting harder to find, even though brown furniture is currently out of fashion. So now it time to buy.

[@kimberlysamuel474]

I would love to see someone restore this while keeping a portion as a museum. Or lend to a museum and restore the place fully, allowing the museum to restore priceless pieces...This is awesome, too much for the single person left to care for the place, who never married? Am I right?

[@dimitrakavvada]

Can someone please explain me how can a house be left like this with no relative caring?

[@robaspinall988]

if they didnt have any children that could explain it . sometimes local councils dont even know these house s are stood empty .

[@gaynor3976]

The embroidery piece is called a sampler. What a lovely house with very interesting things housed inside. The photos at the end showed loving family photos. Thanks Meg and Chris, this is a gem xx

[@hollygrovejournals7491]

Great explore, this was an amazing house, thank you 😊

[@sarahstrong7174]

The items in the little top drawer of the cabinet are picture hooks for hanging pictures & other decorative items off of the picture rails that you see installed on the walls of older properties. Picture rails are really handy , not just for hanging pictures but for suspending plants in macrame hangers, even to hang up your best clothes while you plan what to wear for your evening out.

[@robaspinall988]

great video as always .. just to sugguest at 50.20 you looked inside the wardrobe .. thats cool .. if you had nudged the clothes on the rack up slightly I think you might have found a uniform ..

[@traceysuggers2201]

I always say when you see a gun just be very careful because even though it’s been left for so long they can still go off and you guys are safe anyway I know that but Justin be careful

[@vanessasimmons1175]

In the top drawer of that cabinet were old fashioned metal picture hooks. They hung on the old picture rails on the wall and held the picture.

The label on the key read. "The gentlemans mahogany wardrobe". Mahogany is a tropical hard-wood of a reddish hue.

Why is their a 2019/20 recycling calender hung up near the end of the video ,also a few covid masks dotted around the place , Great video btw 👍🏻

[@robthomas6325]

in the first room you opened up tiny drawers, in the top one where hangers for paintings and it is a walking stick you was holding not a cane, the old furniture shand me downs from parents, the radiator in the hall would help to dry the coats (the amount of adverts are annnoying) the crosses on the fireplace in living room are not poppy crosses they where given to children who went to a church at easter time called a Good Friday Cross, BRILLIANT !!!

[@Felicity2121]

Hi ROB I thought the crosses were for Palm Sunday. Some people also say cane when referring to a walking stick although Cane is mostly an American term.

[@ianhosier4042]

Looks like the electric is still on and I have noticed this In a few of your explores. You guys really should try the lights when you get into an explore instead of groping around in the dark. There is another channel that I watch and 9 times out of 10 they explore using the house lights and if the power isn't on it's usually something simple like a blown fuse or one of the bulbs needs changing. In one house they had to pop 50p in the meter lol. NB: if you do put the power on then please switch it off when you are done as the other guys do. I would hate to see a place as nice as that go up in flames.

[@glenyshanlon5112]

It just kept going on and on and I don't think it's weird at all I used to do it as a young girl where I lived was ones all country and still lots of old farm houses all empty i spent hours roaming around and looking at them I can't believe how much is in this house but they probably lived in it since just after the second World War its absolutely huge I expect it had sevents and maids at one time because just one lady couldn't have possibly cleaned all this house on there own the furniture is absolutely beautiful that settel in the hallway you called a bench is worth at least £2000 or more i wouldn't like to say how much the furniture would make but im sure its a kings ransom the cups plates dishes are all called crockery and knifes forks and spoons are cutlery .and them hall clocks must be worth a small fortune really enjoyed this one but I have enjoyed every single one of your videos great work both 😃

PLEASE if you open cupboards and cabinets in an abandoned house, ensure you close them again so creatures can’t get inside and cause further damage to the contents. The jackets are sheepskin. The cabinet that looks like wine rack could be an antique writing desk that Georgians used when they travelled abroad. Sad that you covered the man’s photograph - postcard should have been replaced exactly as found. The embroidered alphabet is called a sampler. Hope a descendant eventually saves the beautiful antique furniture, paintings, and belongings. Such a shame they’re left to crumble and decay. 😢

You are curious and with a genuine interest in human nature showing compassion for previous dwellers and insight into how they may have lived. It's not only a challenge to explore but to film and edit for the rest of us. Finding buildings to explore is nothing new it's just that the net has brought this to light for all, not that strange "Meg Mum"😂❤️. Thank you Meg and Chris🥰

What a sad back story to this great location. So sad that the son passed away and everything was left. We can’t take it with us. What an absolutely fascinating explore. The house is full of so many beautiful things, some will be valuable too. I hope that this one doesn’t get trashed. It deserves the respect that you guys always show on your explores. This has got to be one of the best of your explores I have seen. You never disappoint. Keep them coming.
