The glass negatives process were made from the 1880’s to the 1920’s.They were called ambrotype.

Thanks for the explanation. I was thinking they might have been daguerreotypes. Very interesting find, Steve!

I have followed you for some yrs now. You were the 1st UrbEx person I stumbled across and it got me hooked. You are an incredible photographer! You have explored some amazing places and I always look forward to a new explore! Thank you for taking us with you on all your adventures! Following you from deep South TX.

People used to use Chamber Pots as in the night they did not want to use an 'out house, or place to go to bathroom outside and used during the day at one time" or a bathroom too far especially if children Great tour. Quite a lovely Chateau!

And the architecture of that mansion is incredible! That fireplace with the statues and all that carving is magnificent! Nothing is made like it used to be anymore. Oh those beautiful horses will haunt me forever. I so wish I had money to rescue them. It's so unfair they have to live like that. 😭😢😨

We see the horses running free as tragic, but, they may actually love the freedom. It looks as if there is a lot of countryside for them to roam. They are beautiful.

One thing I noticed about this place is it seemed that those first few bedrooms you went through were frozen in time from the early 20th century. While the later bedrooms looked like they had been used more recently, because the clothing and personal items looked more contemporary. I'm guessing if there were only a few people living there last, they'd have no need for use of all the rooms, so I could see them just leaving them as little museums. Re: chamber pots: They weren't just for elderly or sick people like you think of similar things today. They were used because there was no indoor plumbing yet and/or there were very few bathrooms when indoor plumbing was introduced. They'd have pots so they wouldn't have to get up and walk far through the dark castle in the middle of the night to get to the bathroom. They were actually items of luxury.

This goes for me as well. I do watch both.

Hard to imagine having to leave such a beautiful place with so much history. Watching from UK

Wow does the family have any idea how valuable some of the stuff there is. There could also be rare books or artwork. That is a crime to leave that stuff to rot. I noticed everywhere you walked there were not squeaky floors. The house is still very sound. Good builders those days. Someone should buy it and restore it, since its so historical.

Absolutely stunning !! They don't make care homes like this now, so full of quality workmanship. Been watching videos of you with the guys in the car caves finding the sword, down in the tunnels and of course Edinburgh drinking Frankinstine cocktails with Josh & Dan...so funny Steve ! Love the videos !!!

Such a magical place and so beautiful! Love the wild horses. That just added to the fairy tale aspect! Great job on this video Steve!

I so love the peaceful vibe this casle gives especially while hearing the birds shirping outside while you tour inside. You really do a great job in this field and I'm so glad I've found your channel Steve 😭 I'm glad to know that there are people like you who gave importance to the story and history of these abandoned places. Thank you for restoring the beautiful memory this houses/castles once have 🥺

Great find and tour. Those kids better snap out of it. It's been 20 Years now. The value of property has gone up and if it deteriorates ,ceiling, flooring , mold will be a mess and ruin the historic pictures left there. Those big negatives were amazing for even myself who studied and practiced developing black and white film from 35mm cameras in 80s. Those you saw were huge negatives. Looks like they were on glass. The wild horses 🐎 👍

So many treasures in such a beautiful mansion. Thank you all for sharing your love for these places. Stay safe and love you all so much 😘💯💜

Wow, what an amazing place. It does look a bit ransacked, but there is still so much there to look at. That fireplace is unbelievable. It's been quite some time since I've watched one of your videos, but I do watch a few from time to time. I'm really glad I had a chance to look at this one, because it is definitely a house I haven't seen film before. There was just so much to see!!!

It's a stunning home Steve. A real beauty. Big white fireplace is the best in the house. Sad about the family. Pretty awesome find Steve. You guys stay safe.

It's a beautiful Mansion, but so sad that they leave all the family history behind.. what a waste! hope someone rescue everything soon!! :( thanks for this great video Steve!!!

Wow, this place is awesome! It must have looked stunning in it's hey day, it still looks stunning abandoned. Thanks Steve, another awesome explore, love your explores your so respectful to these places , stay safe x 🙏

Another amazing adventure. Thank you for sharing your great content. Love all your videos Steve. Keep safe and God bless you always 💗🔥👍

The fireplace with greek figure statues is the most spectacular one I've ever seen on any utube explore channel!!

Hi Steve this is so stunningly beautiful,a true gem you have found much love Ann uk ❤️❤️❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

I'm watching this from the East Bay Area of San Francisco, California USA. That fireplace with the carved face was amazing!

🌹🌹🌹Steve, the painting in the red room was so beautiful! I noticed in a hall an electric light switch was covered with wallpaper matching the wallpaper on the wall around it, a real sign of great taste. The face you showed carved in the center of the fireplace surround--incredible!! So lifelike!! I could look at it for a very long time!! Thanks again, Steve! At some point, I'll attempt to figure-out my favorite of all your videos, but it won't be easy! Haha!🌹🌹🌹

Nice I enjoyed this one too. What a Mansion, to bad it still isn't being up kept and livable. So much history!

Amazing explore, Steve!!! That mansion is so beautiful. Thank you for taking us along for the adventure.

Thank you for taking us on your adventures. I always look forward to your explorations. Keep going and never stop sharing these amazing places! Watching from the island of Oahu-Kapolei, Hawaii.

Wow, that was awesome, thankyou for sharing. I just cannot believe there are so many beautiful abandoned places just sitting there empty and decaying with so much valuable stuff sitting inside. Just seems wrong. What a shame. Look forward to your upcoming vids.

Watching from Port Arthur Texas enjoy you sharing your videos I retired in October 2023 so I watch a lot of your videos at night cause I have no need to watch the time anymore so thank you.

It's a shame a beautiful castle and everything is rotting away.

So beautiful. I love the history behind these beautiful homes and mansions you bring to life for us all. At the same time it is sad too, to not know what became of the families. Thank you for all of these wonderful videos of your travels of your wonderful finds!

Hey Steve, beautiful place. My mother in law was from France. My Husband spent his early childhood in France about 60 mile from Paris. He said he has seen a lot places like that when he lived there in the early 60's . Thank you from Northwest Arkansas.

Absolutely incredible place! Much of that furniture and art is worth a fortune!!! 😲

Steve absolutely unbelievable! You are so blessed to be able to do what you do! And yes the lady in the pick looks like Ann Hathaway!

I've been watching for some time now. Forget to hit the like button. I usually watch on TV. Love the respect you show all the properties. I had wished you had gotten the carvings closer on that cupboard. ...love the architecture and knowing that some one hand crafted so much in this Mansion. Absolutely gorgeous

Amazing place , Stunning architecture . that thing on the floor that you asked about was from a central heating system.

I have followed your channel for almost 2 years,,,I'm from Philippines but I worked here in Kingdom of Bahrain right now....GOD BLESS U ALWAYS

What a gorgeous place, I must go to France some day! 😍 And yes that woman in the picture looks so much like Anne Hathaway it's scary! Thanks for another great one Steve 👍

So crazy! Every time you make a comment I'm thinking the exact same thing! Yes that looked like an old Anne Hathaway and yes it looked like someone was 😴 she sleeping on that bed 😂

As usual Steve another amazing video ! I’m watching from our home State of Massachusetts, and I’m still following you since you got together with Josh and you were with John and Cody also ! That was quite some years ago ! How time flies! Be safe. ❤️🙏🏻

Lovely...I do enjoy your videos... That wasn't a prosthetic foot but a shoe last on top of the fireplace. Death has a very unique bad overwhelming odor....you will smell it and hear flies and bees before you see a body of a human or animal. Stay safe exploring!

That what I thought about some of those bed rooms some looked more up dated than others I noticed that even in the bathroom I like how you explain about the families every body doesn't do that so there for you will have no interest in watching thanks 👍 for sharing this was one a beautiful home 💯👍💯

That black purse looks like it would be a dr medicine bag 💼 for house call’s back the day and I have a question to ask you? When exploring do you ever look under the beds? To see if there is anything under them? 🤔

Watching from CANADA 🇨🇦 ( Ott-Ont) luv your channel ! Thanks for a awesome explore …. What a beautiful 😍 old grand home .

Those pianos are worth thousands! Great vid

It’s so sad when you see family photo albums just left and abandoned 😔😢

What a magnificent place Steve. Thanks for sharing with us.

What a beautiful home ❤️ it’s sad to see it left, but not my place to judge. I would be terribly sad and leave as well. Great great work!

Absolutely amazing!! Such a beautiful piece of history. Thanks for sharing.

I watched this.. awfully sad about these great abandoned houses .. not returned to their former glory.😟

I love your videos 🤩 that was amazing. That last fireplace! Imagine what the whole place would of looked like in its heyday. I like their taste too. Watched from New Zealand. Thank you for your content Steve 💫💐

The fireplace is quite beautiful. I'm sure back in the day, the house was kept nice. But, squatters and people who ransacked this place, had no respect for it. It would have been beautiful. I've never understood how people can be so destructive, or even why they would want to be?

Being in these places rmust fill you all with sadness to think what once was … if only walls could talk… I see more useless eaters using the family portrait as target practice

, hair dryer, hat , sleepers Kitchen Soup , vinegar, spray bottle Wow !!! The mansion look like a castle, very beautiful time capture, I like everything in this place , it is a beautiful and historical mansion indeed sadly to see it got a banded, thank you for sharing.

Watching from Redding Ca. Love the places and the way you show respect for the things left behind.... Thank you for being an honest and respectable person.

This has been beautiful, the fireplace, beautiful!!!!!!

This mansion is beautiful, so sad no family member if any had saved the family pictures and the house it self. Great vlog thank you from Phoenix, Arizona. Stay well buddy.

This castle is absolutely gorgeous. Hope that the family gets better from loosing their father l the historical history of the people who lived here alone makes the castle so special. If there's someone doing the grounds he should have the castle locked up and auction off the beautiful antiques and pictures. There all so amazing.. why let your loss of your dad. Make it so bad to save the castle or sell it. Before it just rots away. That'd be so awful. Ughhhh I get crazy when you see all these beautiful antiques and pictures pictures of your family rot away. They should have the historical society come to register the castle. And save it

Chamber pots were used in those castles because they had no flush toilets. To save from having to go outside in the middle of the night, they used their chamber pots.

I agree that it's an old chamber pot. It looks too vintage to be something that would be used as an assistive toilet today.

The explores in France are always interesting....great vid..absolutely stunning horses

It is easy to let one’s mind wonder with visions of grand balls and the decadence that may surround its fancifully dressed guests filled with spirits dancing and laughing the night away. The extravagance in this home is shown through the immaculate decor, elegant flowing fabrics still rich in color, the art, dinnerware and the general overall magnitude of every detail that seemingly went into such a grand home. Now abandoned and unknown, left to wither away with the memories they once held for a family that was so seemingly robust with wealth and life. I am left with so many questions but the one so intriguing is the history of the artwork. A collection as remarkable as this surely has a history but who’s? Photos found throughout the home depicted military roots of some sort, could these precious masterpieces have been acquired during a war? Does anyone have any history at all?

Amazing place hopefully someone will save it and not let it rot away...Thanks for the video

Hello Steve, I am from Gratiot, Ohio. I do enjoy your videos the most they are very respectful of each person & place you go . Thank you

Cointreau Guignolet liqueur, I think its exclusive bottle. Marketing with multiple cherries started from 1930-1940. But this bottle got 2 cherries and wooden bottle cap. I would say he is the person who gets everything first. Family very close to French elite.

LovE your photography and going on your adventures with you. I watch you from Tulsa, Oklahoma
