Pretty cool place. I love to see how them homes that old were built and layed out inside. Kind of gives you a glimpse of how the lived that far back...and thats an old one!
Awesome find there guys. I also love those old bottles and how they are made so small !!!! Recognizable if you were blind by texture / smell etc.. Well worth scrambling through the nettles to gain access guys👍 Definitely some tales to tell from that find guys👍😁 Thanks for sharing🍻
Looks like the farmhouse stopped being lived in in the 1960's, wonder who owns it today? 5:30 That bed frame is probably no older than 20 years with its lack of rust, from its storage location looks like someone was planning to squat the place at some time, the lack of dust & cobwebs on it indicates it hasn't been there long either. Nice place externally, but would cost a fair bit to make it internally habitable again. 3:15 Even the graffiti was elegant in the 19th Century! - I wonder who W.H. was? Nice film.
One day you'll fall through the floor! Can't believe how well that house has been made and therefore, how dry it was. You were right! The newer places are usually plagued by damp.
@@LostAdventuresExploring Love to Ben 🙂👌🏻 They used it a lot back then, still do, although it's now not quite the same as it used to be, the older stuff is 'Hydrated Lime' which you get directly from Limestone, which you cook in a kiln or fire, which you then put those cooked stones into a bath of Water, It's a very violent process, one that actually makes the water bubble like it's boiling, the stone's crack up and break down into the lime putty, The problem is that while you're doing it, it produces Caustic acid, which spits as the rocks crack up, which hurts like hell if it gets on your skin during the process, It also gives for a gas that's dangerous too, so it's not a great process, we often got spit burns on our skin and cloths doing it, But the lime produced is better in lots of ways, Especially as it dries slowly, allowing it to remain malleable, When you were in the loft space of that old house and looked up at all the stone tiles, you'll have probably seen what looked like a white mortar behind the slates along the battens, that's 'Back pointing' It's done to make the roofs more water and wind tight, You point behind to fill any gaps that allow wind to blow in, or water in a storm, keeping the home warmer and dryer, So a softer lime that dries out slowly over time is better, Hydrated lime cures over a long time in the Air, Where as Hydraulic lime cures by adding water, These day's you tend to buy Hydraulic lime, which in many way isn't as good a medium, But will set under water, which Hydrated lime won't, It also sets much harder, back to it's limestone properties, so tends to be more favorable for those reasons, Where Hydrated lime stays softer and more malleable for longer, but won't set under water as it needs to absorb the carbons back slowly through the air. (sorry that was a lot of boring building tech) Also the Paints you were talking about in the house, That would have been "Distemper" paint, A paint that has been used for thousands of years, as you could paint straight onto bare mortar or plaster without the need of any surface prep, and you'll often see it in Red's or Green's, which were colour's you could get easily using natural mediums, like blood or plant colourings, although it was available in hundreds of colours, some from crushed beetles 🪲 😀 it tended to be used instead of wallpaper, which was an expensive item back then, and allowed a touch of colour to rooms that would have otherwise been dull and dark, It's been used all the way back to the Egyptian pyramids, it's what you still see in all the brite colours of those places, and hence it still looks bright in old farm houses or buildings Sorry for the excessively long reply, Mark 🙂👌🏻
Syrup of figs is for use as a laxative. Its ingredients include figs and dried senna pods, both known for their laxative properties, as well as water, sugar and lemon. The syrup was invented in 1879 by Richard E.

@@LostAdventuresExploring OMG that would be amazing. Did pencils exist or just stone/ coal/ slate?
Amazing place, built to last...loved it! Thanks!

It's a very violent process, one that actually makes the water bubble like it's boiling, the stone's crack up and break down into the lime putty,
The problem is that while you're doing it, it produces Caustic acid, which spits as the rocks crack up, which hurts like hell if it gets on your skin during the process,
It also gives for a gas that's dangerous too, so it's not a great process, we often got spit burns on our skin and cloths doing it,
But the lime produced is better in lots of ways,
Especially as it dries slowly, allowing it to remain malleable,
When you were in the loft space of that old house and looked up at all the stone tiles, you'll have probably seen what looked like a white mortar behind the slates along the battens, that's 'Back pointing'
It's done to make the roofs more water and wind tight,
You point behind to fill any gaps that allow wind to blow in, or water in a storm, keeping the home warmer and dryer,
So a softer lime that dries out slowly over time is better,
Hydrated lime cures over a long time in the Air,
Where as Hydraulic lime cures by adding water,
These day's you tend to buy Hydraulic lime, which in many way isn't as good a medium,
But will set under water, which Hydrated lime won't,
It also sets much harder, back to it's limestone properties, so tends to be more favorable for those reasons,
Where Hydrated lime stays softer and more malleable for longer, but won't set under water as it needs to absorb the carbons back slowly through the air.
