    Great explore Alec! Despite the damage to the exterior, the condition of the house was really well preserved. I remember a lot of those things when they were new. Rare to see a non vandalised phone box these days, used more as WCs in our area. I can't remember the last time that I saw an actual phone in one. Love the stills that you take, they really capture the ambience - you could write a book one day using those. Another beautiful house, thanks both.

    Thanks Alec for another pleasant explore. Nice to see your lass with you. I liked the walk including the ‘phone box, and was wishing I was there, but especially enjoyed it from my chair as soon as you mentioned the midges! Good that there wasn’t a lot of fetid rubbish and dodgy floors inside as I’m sure the midges were enough of a hassle.

    Love the scenery!!! Loved the phone booth!!! Haven’t seen one of those in ages!!! I love how you communicate with your partner! You could even do it more👍 Due to me being from the US, it is a bit hard for me to understand you due to your accent…or my accent, depending on how you look at it😂🤣 To me it looks like a single guy lived here, as it was very basic, no frills & looked like engine parts in the living room…a guy thing!😳 Maybe you could even talk a bit more to tell us what we’re looking at! Loved how you joked around with your partner!!!👍 Thank you Alec, for sharing this wonderful adventure with us! I loved it ❤️

    This one looks like it’s a solid little house. It’s very bright & cheerful. It may need a lot of repairs /restoration, but its scale makes it seem more doable than other larger houses or estates.

    I reckon that rough looking patch of ground on the right, just before you come to the house, where all the docks are growing, was where the inhabitants once grew vegetables. That was where they used that rotavator.

  • @sarahstrong7174
    @sarahstrong7174 3 года назад

    Yes that looks like an old gas light to me too. Still come across a few old fittings in houses in Devon where I live. The hardware store still used to stock a few mantles for them when I first came to live here. My Nan used to have a gas fridge.

  • @sarahstrong7174
    @sarahstrong7174 3 года назад

    We used to have an old phone exactly like that towards the end of the 1980s but, despite our protests, BT insisted on changing it to a press button one, which was very annoying because a bird in the garden learnt to mimic the electronic ringing/trilling type sound that came from it extremely effectively.
    The sound of those old dial telephones really had something about it. The old dialling tone was rich & reassuring & the ring sounded a bit exciting & energising.

  • @sarahstrong7174
    @sarahstrong7174 3 года назад

    I wonder if the lights & cooker had mains gas or if the house would run on cylinders? Someone must have lived there till fairly recently going by the look of the internal decorations. Or maybe it has just been built very strongly & that is why it does not look too bad? It surely cannot have been empty since the 1980s, at least not without the roof being fairly regularly maintained minimum.
