Abandoned 18th century Moore House
Sorry for the poor interior video. I didn't have a light with me that day. This video was taken earlier this year and the photos were taken over the last 5 years. This house was started in the late 1700's and then enlarged in the 1830's. Located in Halifax County, North Carolina.

Abandoned 18th century NC plantation house
Просмотров 40 тыс.7 лет назад
This is some video and a collection of photos that I have taken of this house over the past 20 years. The house was originally built in the late 1700's but looked very different than it does today. The house was enlarged and remodeled in the early 1800's and then again in the 1840's. Although the house looks rough the frame and some of the remaining woodwork is in very good condition
A very short movie...

Privettes Motel was built in the 1940s on a once busy road. Almost everything on the old road died out after it was bypassed by a modern highway.

This North Carolina house was built in 1912 and has been empty for most of the last 15 years. When I photographed this place 3 years ago it appeared to be completely abandoned but someone bought it with plans of a restoration but very little work was done and now it's for sale again. I took this video a couple of weeks ago and was unable to get inside because the house is now locked. I've inclu...

This old eastern North Carolina house was built about 1850. It has a very unusual floor plan and some say that it was originally used as a boys school. A early detached kitchen and dining room are still behind the house. There used to be several original outbuildings but most have disappeared in the last few years. I knew there was an old family cemetery to the left of the house but after looki...

    Places like this I'd like to maintain in an "arrested decay" way. The inside would be made habitable, and the outside repaired only to keep it standing. I like the weathered look of these places. Redoing the outside just makes them look like the millions of other homes out there. Boring ! Ever see the Disney Phantom Manor in Euro Disney ? THAT'S how I like houses !! :)

      It was completely remodeled and enlarged around 1850. It was originally a strange hipped roof tripart house. The original center roof framing can be seen in the attic under the newer roof. Everything in the original frame is pit sawn and uses handmade iron nails. The only Georgian details left inside the house is some molding and a weird paneled wall on the second floor. Even the main staircase has been changed. There's also a circa 1810 house attached to the back side with a tiny spiral staircase. It's a very interesting house.

    A guy by the name of Hans Grogen lived there from 1844 until 1948. He grew tobacco and cranberries of all things. He served in the confederate army under Gen Simon B Buckner during the Civil war. He was captured at New Creek WV a small skirmish that took place there. He was imprisoned in Chicago. He escaped that prison by broke his leg in several places.After the war, he tried to return to farming but his leg never healed right. In 1866 he married Mila Swarrigen, and when she gave birth in 1868 to what he believed was his brother's baby, he killed both Mila and his son, and hid the bodies in the attack of this house. Authorities did catch up with him a few days latter and came to arrest him, he shot himself in the head on the porch of this house. Mila Grogen and baby were buried on this property, with a small stone marker. I have been told the markers were swept away in a flood from 1985. So that's the history of it
