- Опубліковано 28 сер 2024
- This was probably the oldest property I have explored, it had some incredible things from when it was a working Welsh farm house including the old fire & well pump (which still worked) after we left the house and to our complete surprise we found an extremely rare Alvis Woody in one of the barn’s!!! This car is from the 1940’s and was in absolutely incredible condition! One of the best and oldest barn finds I’ve ever found!

The fact that the house is strapped and also all the loos etc been saved and stored securely along with the car suggests to me that someone means to preserve the house. Which would be amazing, all those original features! It's sad society doesn't protect our history like it should. Thanks for sharing with us.
I'd imagine its probably a listed building
@@lovegirl101xx society really doesn't need rudeness in these times. If u don't like my comment scroll on by. I dread my baby being born into this world where people are so rude! Makes me cringe. No need for it
I feel so bad for whoever restored that Alvis! It looks like really good work, and now they've either passed or had to move away. Someone needs to rescue that legacy!
I think this is the most architecturally beautiful houses I have seen! Better than all the fancy mansions. The entire property must have been amazing in it's prime, and could be again. LOVED this explore, Thank You!!
The thing that really impressed me was the way you climbed that wall with no effort whatsoever 👌 I’m so jealous 👍
Pink window frame, an early form of primer was actually pink, I remember back many years (too many to list here) but all woodwork that was new and also being restored/painted the primer was pink
Notice there was still the old Copper for boiling up laundry in too. That is what the round wooden lid is for. Between the old sink & fireplace.
My word you could see the outside through the walls that poor house I truly hope someone saves it, amazing stuff.
Registered at DVLA & the Road tax was due 1st Sept 1994
When i see all the old plumbing stored away cisterns and toilet pans ect i got happy ..am a plumber i was suprised when i see that plastic toilet cisten in the outside loos and dissapointed ..but you found the old stuff afterwards ..i like old things ..the car was good also made of wood wow ..and the house was beautiful with all them black wood beams mixed in with the brick work so nice .. thank you for sharing with us i want to come with you . Take care
Wow , nice fined and nice photography it makes a massive diffence to people's Videos,👌🏼👍🏼🙏🏼✌🏼💜
The first building you went into was a victorian wash house complete with a copper! Wonderful explore
That's what I thought, you'd boil water on the fire and then wash the laundry in that fixed pot with the wooden lid.

Loved this room :-) *
@@cruizzer77 hi Martin Geissmann , I thought that too , then noticed what looked like a fire grate directly under the round basin :-)
They had those in a coppers in the wash house building out the back of the tenement buildings in Glasgow when I was a ankle biter in the 1950,s
Alvis cars were always a bit special and very expensive in their day. I have one in restoration all parts are bespoke and need to be made by a specialist. The pot hook as you call it is a chimney crane and you could swing it out to pour a cuppa without lifting. Great video thanks
What a fantastic find - both house and car. I'm sure it's a listed building so hopefully it may get saved. Never realised you were so athletic and I love the hair!!! Gill
That strapping looks recent so looks like someone intends to save the house and no doubt they must know about the car too so hopefully could be rescued soon
That car really needs to be saved and put in a museum , I agree 👍🏻
It's nothing special and would cost more than it would be worth to put right although it is probably worth a few grwnd to someone who either wants to restore or just parts
Of cours it's sprcial. Many would love to have this woodie. It's 72 years old, and in very good condition.
The car and house are both amazing.
The reason the house is strapped up , obviously to stop it from falling etc, but I bet you it’s grade 2 listed , so has to be preserved until funds allow for future restoration.
Really enjoyed watching how do you find these places i’ve even tried growing a beard I still can’t find locations as good as yours
probably a network of other high ranking trusted explorers / content creators
Damn! That's where I have been going wrong. Didn't realise I needed to grow good beard.
Do not lean on the wall.
😂😂
It's amazingly dry for such an old house. The roof must be made of sturdy stuff.
That was a fantastic explore, thank you. The first room you went in when entering the house was the Laundry/wash house. With a fire under the round tub which you filled with water, it even had the round wooden lid. Amazing to see all the beams in this really old house, I think the plaster maybe called 'wattle and daub' I could be wrong! Would live to know the history of this place. It's obviously a 'Listed' building so maybe someone will save it. Thank you so much, well done.
Nice video. Your respect for the house/car is commendable. I could spend hours exploring places like these.
Great find, I'm thinking the property is 16th/17th century with later additions. Some of the infill brickwork looks much more recent. I remember seeing one of those cars on the road in the early 90s, with the funny sticking out indicators.
Absolutely brilliant video guy's totally enjoyed it. 👍🇦🇺
I love history and old cars so thank you for the explore from Tulsa, Oklahoma!
I did a check on the Alvis and it's from 1948, so it's 72 years old and definitely needs saving
Thankyou for filming this place & letting us all have a good look at it. Much appreciated. I love this place. Watched it 4 times. I find this place fascinating.
WOW! 🤩 I really enjoyed this explore. You do a great job with your channel. Thanks for sharing.
This building isn't as old as you seem to think, or at least the brickwork isn't, probably Victorian. Look at the morter. The timber frame may be older but then we're still constructing new timber frame houses, so it probably contemporary to the brickwork.
Thank you for the tour around that beautiful old house so interesting love watching your videos
I was amazed how you got up through the window in the barn 😂
Stay safe Xx
I love your videos, and I'd also love to give that poor old alvis a home 😂. It's a shooting brake made by coachbuilders cornbrook or barnards. Buying cars in the early 20th century was so much more interesting and cool than today 😂. I love the history of it and im lucky enough to work with classic and vintage cars every day.
Great explore, I knew a farmer who had a similar sink , he said it was where they killed and cut sheep up.with a bucket under the sink to catch the blood.
Whoa! ...be still my heart! That woody is an awesome find!. Is that house from the 15-1600's? Thats a shame its in that shape but im glad some is trying to save it! Do you have any history on it?
Thanks for sharing 👍! Thats a fantastic find!
Great explore and find Colin. Try and find the owners and see if something can be done with the car.
Incredible house!
Thanks for the videos, you are a gentleman.
My father owned a Woody after the war when he was stationed in Northern Ireland. I saw a photo he had taken from a recognisance flight in an Aircraft with a camera.
Need to getcha some wellies!!
I’m sitting here in a 300 yr old house and I’m looking around for cracks. I think it’s the cobwebs stopping the house falling on you.
Great video that you have shown us. Thanks for sharing this bit of history and adventure with us that watch your channel. Outstanding job sir.
What is a beautiful home, the straps look rather new ;) I hope they can restore home.
One of your best! Thoroughly enjoyed!!
Awesome find.I wonder when the last person lived there.Awesome car.xx
What a collector Item .The car and the house hope both are saved.🖒🖒🇺🇸💗
Fabulous visual with the car & beams - great editing there - great find too! As someone has noted - you should inform the local museum and/or historical society. Chimney is Elizabethan
and m any of the bricks too much smaller than later bricks which got larger 18th and again C19th and turn of the century.
Great video 📹 mate can't wait for next one thanks
Another amazing building and exploration!
Loved watching that, glad that people are respectfully exploring places like that and posting vids. I will say though that in terms of architectural autopsy, I kept wanting to tell you things that were being misinterpreted. There were signs that someone is restoring the oak frame gradually as I saw some green wood behind you when you were upstairs and a great deal of the brick infill between the posts and rails was quite new, I'd imagine to stop the weather getting in and causing the structure to rack: (lean over until the frame of the house becomes non-viable for repair.) I have never seen such a well preserved scullery unrestored as the one where you entered the building, that on it's own was a treat, the rest of it was icing on the cake. Keep it up! And the front door was pretty new, as were the pink primer painted window frames that had timber planted on the edges of the window openings in the frame in order that they will fit, probably temporarily. I think it is a listed building and that someone is working to a schedule of both preservation and sensitive repair, but on a budget. If anyone has a different view, I would be interested to hear their take on what they see.
Yes quite possibly, hopefully they'll be able to a good job it deserves to be saved.
Fabulous explore. The oldest I have seen. I would have liked to have seen more of the structure of the outbuildings.
the Alvis factory is now a retail park. as is the nearby former Standard Triumph factory.
Kind of a metaphor of Britain's transformation from technological world leader to retail economy... It's chilling
Awesome car and the house was great too.
It would have been fascinating to know who lived there and why the house is abandoned.
Just looked up the Alvis reg and it's now on a black VW Golf..
your the best keep up the great work
That car needs to be rescued by a car museum ASAP. It's also such a nice house too, such a shame it could actually collapse at any moment.
I would have to guess that the house is Tudor or Elizabethan. And that first area you were in when you first entered the house night have been where the beer/ale was made or it just could've been the original kitchen. This is just this Canadian's guess :) Absolutely beautiful house!!
What a Lovely 1949 Alvis TA14, There is actually one for sale currently on EBay, Lovely farmhouse as well!
Oh my ,love to have the car.Great video.Stay safe.My son has a model of that car.really cool.👍👍💗
Good video of a nice explore m8y 😎
Wow that car is awesome
😃🍻👍🏻
Car is in really good shape, pitty its stuck there. Spooky place though.
At 3:35 the doorway looks like a figure with its arms up . (Liking the cornrows btw!)
Cool video guys love the car and building wonder why they took the toilets out shame they can't fix it up
Loved this video because I love really old houses & love really old cars. One of my Grandfathers had an old Austin A5, which I just remember. After that he had a Wolsey which he made last for the rest of his life (with a lot of filler). The back of that Alvis reminds me of a friends' Morris Traveller, growing grass, moss, fungi, & ferns by the end, but we loved it.
When you are at an old place like this it is always worth looking around outside for old garden & food plants. Things like roses & apple & plum trees or hazels can last a long time. Bulbs like daffodils will spread themselves. Herbs like marjoram or mint or burdock seed themselves for generations. It all adds to the picture of how people lived in the place. Medicinal plants such as elder trees that provided flowers for tea or wine & berries for cough syrup or wine making may be there too.
This is a really super old house.
Have you a friend who might like to metal detect there? Probably make a good video.
I don't think that house has been lived in for quite some time, which might explain why so many old features have been retained.
I do hope someone renovates that house. It would be worth a huge amount when fixed up. But someone may want to maximise profits by building 96 flats there instead.
Looking around this old farm building it probably dates from the 16th century
I was thinking the same.
@18.27 004.7 the Red is 10th of a mile, that one is the trip meter, the mileage is the bottom one
Another great video! Absoulte love this place 👍🏻
buetiful farm nice find good work
TOP VIDEO ,,,,GREAT FIND ON THE WOODY ,,LIKE THE NEW HAIR STYLE
First time i'm seeing a house being strapped like that!😅 Glad no vandals getting to it as that house would've been on the ground by now. Great to see that someone is potentially gonna renovate it as well.👍
That sure was an amazing find.
Last logbook was issued in 1993 for the Alvis. It has an 1892 cc engine . Amazing find 👍
Excellent video,such a shame that a lovely building in that condition
Awesome find
Can't believe you found this
bfg on Instagram
Always love watching your videos keep up the good work and keep the amazing videos coming :)
Only discovered your channel today i am hooked. Reminds men of when i used to explore the old railway station and cottages when i was about 10. Would you share some of your techniques for finding desolate places. I would like to explore where i live. 🙏
It would be interesting to know who built and owned that farm house as it must be very old
Oh wow what a find, the house and car need to be saved, what was the room you first got in with the fire with hook and old sink? Great explore.... ❣️
@17.41 Trafficators lol
The car is number 5 on the assembly line. You must save this car
Like you said early in the video, it like going back in time 👍🏻
the pink on the woodwork was primer it was the normal color 4 primer untill about 20 years ago
Pink , so the site agent knew the undercoat and gloss was done properly otherwise it’s going to show through, I learnt the hard way
another excellent video , you have made a good career choice !
He Coole Frisur. Das Auto ist der Hammer schade das es dort vergammelt. Das Haus war echt gefährlich pass bloß auf das Dir nix passiert.
Nice Colin as per. Really enjoyed the video, gotta go careful in buildings like that though. Like the new hair lol. Cheers for the video.
That Alvis has been off the road since the mid 90s , first registered in March 1948
If those cars have been sitting there abandoned for more than 4 years you can claim them and get an abandoned vehicle title and restore them. Plus I respect explorers like you going into abandoned places filming documenting the history and leaving things just as you found them
Loving the hair and what a car
Car looks stunning !!
Please, please, please do more research and get this car restored ❤️
Great explore mate
Another great explore 👍
Last time it had a log book issued was Sept 16th 1993, road tax ran out Sept 1994.
I wonder being so old it's a 'listed building'? & that's why straps etc have been put in?
i want that woody lol
At one time they was a beautiful farm house I wished it was in better shape.
another awesome video
Hello bạn , chiếc xe cổ đẹp quá , nhà này bỏ hoang lâu lắm rồi , vào nhà này nguy hiểm bạn ơi , vì xuống cấp nghiêm trọng sẽ đổ bất cứ lúc nào ? Thanhk video của bạn
Fascinating , yes you are right , what looks like a late 1940s - very early 50s Alvis TA 14 with a ' shooting brake ' body as they were known then , of around 1.9 litres.Certainly looks as though it was an ongoing restoration and like so many , never get finished by the person undertaking it, running out of life !.
Another great video
awesome!
The Alvis body style is known as a Shooting Brake or commonly known as a Woody, see link www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C56610
A company Boulton & Paul had all windows and doors in pink primer
