More pictures form our latest adventure! We've never been in this room despite being here for a year - it was too unsafe to get into it - the water from the holes in the roof have rotten all the way from top to bottom, leaving a gaping hole in the floor. Thanks to some scaffolding boards and an acro prop we were able to bridge the gap.
This room was not a bedroom in it's later years (back in the 1970's) but an office (so we were told by the family) , there is a table chairs fantastic dresser and tons of documents - bills, Vat returns and things like that.
Mostly dry, although there are some disturbing cracks over the doorway - just wonder how far up they go? Time and care will tell!

downstairs - the vital acro prop! |
upstairs - a bridge too far for Charlie? |
wonderful cane table |
books, documents, slippers! |
an interesting piece - one of a pair on the dresser |
just how far up this collapse goes will be a critical question |
looking out into the front garden |
the central table, with documents, wallpaper rolls, an old print... |
a very unique candle holder |
the fine dresser - still in great condition |
beautiful carvings - but of what era? |
