Dave has more respect in his little finger than other explorer's do. He isn't ransacking or destroying anything. He puts stuff back the way he finds it. If you feel like he takes things or destroys property then don't watch. I have never seen or heard anything that would make me think for one second that he takes things. I have supported this man and will continue doing so.

Clicked the 'LIKE' button before even watching! :)...This was such a sad but sweet video, the music was such a good choice to accompany thie video too...a wholenlot of beautiful furniture in there and antiques, it saddens me that it has not been claimed by family but just left to rot, this couple had equisite taste in furniture and it wasn't cheap either! Betty loved her plants, when you were in the rooms with the plants, Betty's presence was with you, looking down at her once beautiful plants now left to mother nature, some did have new growth because she was willing them to survive, I could almost hear her whisper..."please can you give my plants some water, they need water"! She chuckled at you going down the stairs on the stair lift :) I would love to see her house restored but I don't think it will happen sadly....Dave, you are one of the mose genuine, trustworthy explorers on KZbin, you don't have to explain yourself to anyone, the honesty shines through your eyes, we all know you shown total respect to property and belongings, everything you touch is with love and always put back the way you found it...there are not many like you in this world, so keep upmthe excellent work, keep bringing us these wonderful explores and make sure MARK comes along, you two are such fun...once again, thank you for sharing and respecting this beautiful home....stay safe, stay awesome and hope your knee gets better real soon! ♡♥

I hope the son gets nil. He's just fighting for the money all those antiques would bring. What is odd to me is that there is a sink in every bedroom. We don't see that in old American homes. Cool video..thanks, Dave! p.s. the triangular device on the mantel is a Metronome, used to keep time for music, and I believe the large metal thing you asked about is an old Hamm radio .

Your my favorite explorer to watch! A lot of the other ones are too quick when walking through and don’t actually explore these places and things. I love that you look inside of things and go in every room even if it isn’t that exciting! I’ve watched a couple of others and they spend their time staging the rooms to get “cool” photos or over edit the videos which takes away from the actual place, they bypass the “boring” rooms, and majority of the time they have no clue what anything is because they are too young. Your videos are very simplistic with editing, very appreciative/informative, and makes it truly feel like the viewer is there walking around with you! Just love the content! 🖤👏🏼👍🏼

We as children with aging parents have to remember they gave their life raising us and when time changes around we need to give them the same respect and be there for them. The little baby crib was probably the one thier son slept in. Them still keeping it shows the love they had and their love of their son, memories of bringing him home and their new baby sleeping in it. Very beautiful carved furniture pieces.

We are trying really hard to makes sure our possible flat gets fixed and proper so that our kids do not need to worry later on, as it was left to itself, windows broken, etc, for decades on row. So I also fear, what if things are not left well done, ...

Dave you are doing an amazing thing by going in and documenting these finds. You respect the property and all items that come with in it and you bring a voice to these places and these people that may no longer have a voice. Its absolutely awful that it takes up to 8-10 years of probate in the UK before someone can access and take care of these properties. By the time a family member does have access to their loved ones house its almost disintegrated. When I was young, my great aunt was responsible for taking care of her parents home after they had passed away. My great aunt was elderly and lived over an hour away from her family home. Once a month my grandparents would pack us up in the old Jeep Cherokee, my dad would mow the lawn, my mom and grandma would dust and make sure my great aunt's family antiques and the house were in good repair. My cousin and I would sit in the back of the jeep drinking Capri sun and having a good ole picnic. It was the best time of our childhood. Sadly in the early 90's it became harder and harder for everyone to get out to the property. Even the farm owner who lived next to the property was having a challenging time keeping up the yard. A year before my great aunt passed away, we found out someone got into the house and stole all of the antique furniture, even my little child's portable potty that my grandmother made us use, was gone. My great aunt told the neighboring farmer that since the place was falling apart and everything was gone, he could go ahead and tear down the house and use it for farm land. To be completely honest Dave, I would give anything in the world to know that an Explorer like you had gone through my great aunt's house and captured pictures or video of what we had lost before things were stolen or became rotten. Having the documentation that you do would mean the world to anyone who otherwise wouldn't be able to get to their loved ones property before the earth took it over. Even if no one does lay claim to an abandoned property, you are still able to bring a story, a moment in time, to thousands of people when in most cases these places and the people who owned them would just disappear into nothingness. In a way, you and your friends are like urban anthropologists. Keep up the amazing work and stay safe.

There are probably priceless painting in this house not to mention the furniture. I like that little carved wooden box on the floor in the sitting room. When you opened it you remarked how heavy the lid was and soon as you opened it I thought man that could have held a lot of gold way back in the day and been transported on a horse draw carriage or something. I love all antiques and going into a place like this would have sent me so far back in time I would have felt strange coming out into the modern world once again. Think positive everyone I know the son will get the home back but like you all say I wish he had access to just securing it from rot and decay. I also thought " Hey isn't anyone going to give those plants water, their screaming for it. Thanks my friend will be looking forward to all your videos.

What a wonderful find. This clearly was a family of means and the Lady of the house saw too it her family had not only comforts but also extras like the counterpanes and sterling napkin rings. Usually when we see these houses, we see coal fireplaces in many rooms. This time curiously, there were wash stands in the bedrooms. The best thing about the overall decor is the owners skipped the garish, mod '60's & '70's. The unit in the cubby at 23:00 ish mark was a Ham radio or maybe a ship-to-shore; although I didn't see any way to transmit. What really amazed me is after 6 years, the Geraniums were still growing without any care or water. I loved the intro, well played ;)

Dave this place was a real gem..the furniture mostly looked Victorian ,loved the bedside cabinet which would have held a potty originally ..the stand with the embroidery in may have been older but that was a fire shield sort of thing you would have it near a fire and place it near you so you could keep warm without it making your skin get over warm and go red..Used by ladies mainly and very decorative,This is a large ons some were smaller and round and mainly protected the face.Most of the paintings and pictures are also in keeping with the Victorian era..It looks like they were from wealthy families due to the amount of antiques in there...Such a beautiful house I just hope no one goes in and ruins it .I hope the Son gets it and restores it ..it’s heartbreaking when your child walks away from you .i know as my eldest has done so to me and we have not talked in over five years or so..it broke my heart..So I know how she felt..It’s so sad when it happens but it does unfortunately ..But they should speed these things up because of homes being left unattended and in bad need of care..Great find one of the best for this year so far ..Hope your knee feels better soon 😀

The story was similar, family squabbles unresolved. Well, the pigeons got in, holes in the roof, dry rot - a real nightmare. We daren't walk past it for fear of tiles falling and the cries of the trapped birds were pitiful (rang RSPCA but nothing done). However (before the COVID pandemic) builders started - new roof, new windows and it looks like it's on the up and up. Keep up the good work Dave!

The instrument about 2/3 of the way through the video is called a melodian, a cross between an old pump organ and a piano, that was portable and lightweight enough to put into a wagon and be carried from one church 'brush arbor' tent meeting or revival, or from one musical gathering in a town hall or private home, to another. They aren't found that often anymore, and though they don't claim to have a high monetary value, they are an unusual musical instrument that was used by many a travelling evangelist...or a musician wanting to share music with others. The triangular wooden box on the mantel is called a metronome, which is also used by musicians to help keep an even tempo while playing upon any instrument. Thanks for the video, I love to see the furniture, antiques , and artwork....but especially the old musical instruments. I play piano and concert harp and have a vested interest in antiques, since I started collecting modestly priced smalls when I was just ten years of age. At 61, I am still collecting...and love watching your videos to see if I can spot a hidden treasure in the abandoned homes you explore. Keep up the interesting videography!

Thanks for not putting abandoned in the title as I can watch. KZbin put horrendous abandoned animal videos after those titles. Your videos are great and your enthusiasm is great. Watched your favourite mansion in France, ( no abandoned title.) Was brilliant. Hope your leg heals. You were amazing walking on it in great pain in that huge Fench mansion.

The home has a lot of condensation moisture also especially right near the windows, they are also plants that live on virtually very little water,. They may be just surviving on the condensation in the air.

It is sad that the son has to wait 10 years before getting to do anything with the house. By then it might need more attention in repairs. So crazy to hear that. Nice home and it is like a untouched time capsule.

What a wonderful time capsule with no damage (except nature & natural decay) or graffiti. The furniture is gorgeous, all the craved wood. Your new camera does a wonderful job, the picture quality is really nice! As with everything there are learning curves. You can tell you put blood, sweat and tears in your video's, from the start all the way through to the editing. Just a sad story about the family, that pride pill is sure hard to swallow. Always say your sorry, remember to except the apologies and always tell your friends and family you love them! My thoughts and prayers are with your sweet little cousin, Holly💜. And I can't wait to hopefully see more videos with you and Mark together exploring again. You guys are hilarious, two peas in a pod! As always, be safe out there.💜💜

Such a sad story.. Son left and parents mourned for him.. Now he is trying to get their beautiful belongings :( Love your parents while you have them. There will come a time that it's too late. In one of the last photos there was a plate with a saying on it! " Prepare to meet thy God" this spoke so well of this home and family.. We all can take a lessen from that plate! I loved this explore. Everything was beautiful, furniture , all those amazing paintings.. Thank you so much for this one I loved it. Now , prop up that knee and ice it and take care.. God Bless

Hi Dave, I’m new to your channel and will subscribe. I have the upmost respect for you, simply because of how you treat these properties. It’s also sad, to see the places in such disrepair and downtrodden. Those that leave those properties in that condition, including the vandals ought to be ashamed of themselves. I’m currently in bed with Covid-19 symptoms and your videos are bringing me joy. I hope your knee gets better. As a kick-boxer my knee almost stopped me from enjoying my sport, so I feel your pain. Thank you. Stay safe.

Another great find, love to hear the bit of history attached, let’s your imagination follow a story. So sad that it’s all been left while the son fights a legal battle, surely someone could could have secured the house at least cleared the land around the house as it doesn’t seem to have been left that many years and it would have slowed down the growth. Clearly they thought like me as I don’t ( won’t) have a tv. I don’t understand why they always leave the beds made up, I’ve noticed on some explores some of the items appear staged and positioned in a certain way. But when someone passes in bed surely you’d get rid of all bedding ? Hope the leg is on the mend, love and healing to you and Holly 🙏🏻 P.s I miss the drone music at the start.

I disagree. If he did not make an effort to make peace, why should he inherit. Just because you gave birth to a child, does not give ownership to them. Forgiveness would have been a better idea, instead he ignored them until it was too late and so no, he does not deserve to inherit.
