THE FORGOTTEN 16TH CENTRY MANSION!! (Found in the woods)

[@Cortinaman63]

LOVED this video, I live a few mins walk away from it, and it has deteriorated a lot over the past 12 years, (I remember the big front doors still in their frame) and WW2 writing on another that read "Guard House",which was covered with corrugated iron sheet in 1946, and uncovered about 6 years ago, The buildings you stated maybe where the servants lived, where Stables, which had been fire damaged years ago, *more recent than the house fire, caused by Polish soldiers in WW2, they had a very large stables/coach house block, stunning ornate gardens with fountain, and a folly, (now covered by nature), You may be interested to know that Queen Victoria "when she was a little Girl" and just Princess visited this mansion,(that is her in the opening B/W photo!) and had tea and cakes on the terrace,with her mother and the owners, and wandered the insides of the house and grounds, so you can really walk in the footsteps of Royalty, and get a feel of the history in this "beautiful but sadly neglected" once fine mansion and it;s grounds. looks like you missed seeing all of it, as bits not seen in your film, that I know are there.

[@victoriaandreamohralba6037]

Cortinaman63 who were the owners? Spectacular photographs of that time, really a dream house!!! ❤️❤️👍🏻 , Do you own that property? How they leave all that so abandoned!! A big pity not to have kept it , but with the world wars that destroyed everything, a bit difficult.

[@tonymontana7566]

Thank you 🙏 I love watching videos like this but the history is a lot more interesting than the video definitely don’t get me wrong the video is good not great for not taking the time to film the whole place with a more endepth reason why they even left the place and never returned

It's saddens me to see a very lovely house left to root great video bro keep uo the awesome work bro

[@jeanetteharris9491]

Thanks for sharing your adventure. A rather dangerous one too. If it had been me, I would have stepped through a door and landed 3 floors down. Be safe. Very hauntingly beautiful and sad all at the same time. I’m almost 80 and it looks like I feel some days. I would have loved to have seen it in it’s prime. God Bless. SE Kansas, USA

Thank you so much for sharing this. It is beautiful in it own way and what a history! Thank you, thank you ... I'm glad you didn't get lost

[@davesmith5656]

Very nice video. Well done. It really gives a sense of the place. The drone shots give a sense of the layout and of the damage (e.g. no roof anywhere, apparently no floors either). It would help if you stopped repeating yourself about crazy, insane, mental, absolutely crazy, really crazy, just insane, wow mental, insanely crazy, just crazy ... and instead gave more of the informative comments about stuff we cannot see or smell or feel because even the best video is limited by its very nature. E.g. is a room near the front, or the back? Is the hallway back-to-front or side-to-side? What seems to be holding the walls up? The comment of the fire is an example of stuff you may see, but the limitiations of video do not show. Was that in the rear, near the kitchen?

[@1962MsLaurie]

So sad and so is the music. I bet it was so beautiful in the day.

[@helenweedon7716]

It was. Beautiful formal gardens as well.

[@patriciabarron3401]

Omg awesome beginning luv....to see something so beautiful once...end up like this....xx

[@leetanasa9255]

Totally wonderful, it just goes to show nothing lasts forever, all it takes is a storm,a loose time or broken window and nature reclaims what was once took from her, such a shame that's all that's left are basically the bones of the building and given time they too will be reclaimed into the earth, do you know the history of who owned and lived there, I'm sure all of us fans would love to know

[@Cortinaman63]

Closed up in the 1920's when the family left it, used in WW2 when MOD put polish army in to it, they then set fire to it as it was too cold to stay in, then they got billeted in the grounds, (low concrete wall bases for the huts they were put in are what you see in this video among the trees), it has been left empty by wealthy owners ever since, such a shame, it is a stunningly beautifully place, with lots of history, and all it's wonderful interiors are now lost forever, including the central skylight now almost rotted way, save for a few very tiny remains . I live a few mins away from it, hope that helps.

[@adelebaker6227]

Watching your video late at night is one of life's greatest pleasures! If only I was 20 years younger!

What a find, great job of photographing. Thank you so much for find picture of as was shown at beginning. Just sad to see it now.

[@oldisgood2587]

This video was beautifully done, the music, introduction and subject matter. You asked many times what it would've been like to have lived there. It could have been heavenly or it could've been hellish depending on the family living there, I'm sure that like any other household it was a combination of both at times. One thing for sure if mom and dad fought and needed a place to get away from each other they certainly had the room to do it. This one has it all. Thank you for bringing it.

[@vloggingwithnina273]

This was beautiful. Feel free to bring out more videos likes this or of ruin castles or something. There is history and beauty in everything, if we take the time to look for it.

When I was a kid my Dad used to take me to an old watermill in the Ashdown Forest that had been used to mill the flour for Queen Victorias wedding cake. The remains of the old waterwheel was still there & an aquaduct that still brought water across a river. Loved that old place. Last time we went there about 1968 they were salvaging the stone.

[@sarahstrong7174]

Yep that was a greenhouse. May have had a grapevine at one point.

The cellars are part;y seen, at 06.44, below ground level, corridor, some of them are full of the rubble from floors above, one big wooden beam has burst through the brick ceiling, in one underground room, there is more than one cellar, I live up the road from it so know it well.

Wow. I have never before in my life seen such a huge mansion in such rotting decay as this! My first time seeing anything like this. So sad and unbelievable. It's hard to believe from the looks of it that it was ever lived in. The floors have collapsed and fallen into pieces. The ceilings and roof is all gone and foliage has taken over. Nothing left but Stone and brick walls. Just an empty quiet shell. It's really not even a house anymore. It's basically just lonely ruins.

I could just imagine what that mansion looked like back then. The owners where very wealthy and I could also imagine it being a house in a Jane Austen novel, Just amazing and fascinating to say the least.
