    Loved the house. Perfect in my humble opinion. The outer stone work was fantastic. The second house was in much worse shape but a nice explore. Very Good seeing you again Alec. We always like when you post and take us along on your adventures. Glad you weren’t alone, too. Until the next one. 👍🏻😊

    love the first cottage it actually reminds me of a previous vlog you done a few years back with leah i think where you had to climb in a tiny square window and left the cottage by a blue front door if you recall that one, id love to bring the first cottage back to life and live in it myself id say it holds a lot of history nice explore alec

    I loved the first home! Nice and cozy! I loved the stone used to build it! It seems like a little TLC and you could move right in! The second home was nice, but would need a lot more work. Thanks!

    @@secretabundance3310Thank you, I did. Explains the sadness & can see why farmers/workers & communities gave up & moved away. In the US we had a similar futile land-labor practice called "sharecropping". It lasted until nearly half of the 20th century. Everyone benefitted except the poor exhausted farmer.

    Someone is keeping the yard clear. A his and hers kitchen sink, that's a first. An outside fireplace that's interesting, blacksmith perhaps. They must have got a job lot with the wallpaper. I might have commented on this before. The outdoor fireplace rings a bell.

    I wonder what was made in that workshop you entered after the house. It has too many windows for a barn. Though it may have been one more recently. Unless it was the dairy & the windows were so it was light enough to ensure thorough cleansing.

    What a lovely little house. It is absolutely nuts that we live in a system of things where properties lay dormant and greedy developers build invasive human guinea pig hutches that look on each other with penny stamp 'gardens' on land where animals belong just to squeeze out every last penny. Should be a crime.

    I've watched a few of these now. When you try to put a date to when these properties were abandoned and why they were left abandoned you miss so many ways to tell. Postage stamps laying around give a clue. As does mail. Medication laying around will give you an idea of what may have happened to them. There are all kinds of things you can puzzle together to workout when the place was abandoned and what happened to the owner. And I wonder how much asbestos you chaps have breathed in. 😷
