    As we adventure across the English countryside, me, Pompeye and Ned stumble across a beautiful old abandoned Farmhouse.
    Sat derelict for many years, this echo of oldschool English farming sits unloved and unwanted.
    Built in 1719 this once grand house still has it's unique thatched roof in good condition.
    Join us as we explore inside.........

    The antics you, your brother Ned and Ed who could be your uncle get up to is fun and entertaining of itself! Thank you for the tour.
    I'm glad you didn't go out on the thatch, you don't know how well it would hold you! Gutted you didn't get in the other bit but, not gutted enough to want you to do stupid stuff. Thank you!

    This old cottage is called Ankers Farm house. I worked on it about 16 years ago when it was occupied. Its part of the near by conholt estate which was owned at the time by a Dutch family who own the calor gas company.

    Hi Alex, Ned & Ed, you should go back with a screwdriver to see what's under those floorboards. Check the 1st stair board on any stairs to see if it lifts up as people used to hide stuff under them. Such a great find, 300 years old, imagine all the history that place has seen. Thank you for sharing, much love. xx 🥰

    How on Earth do you find these fascinating places. Looks like someone was hiring one of the outbuildings or a small local farm cooperative hired the outbuilding as a commercial enterprise. I like that idea! The old thatch in incredibly good condition. Pompeye looks tooooo comfortable with that lungeing whip. Blimey. Those blue and white tiles in the kitchen were just WRONG. What a shame the rest of the house was inaccessible. 300 years of history there. Lovely lovely lovely. SPOOKY THO lol 😂😂😂😂. Thanks for taking all of us along. 💜🤗💙🥰😊😊
