RE: Tales of the Urban Explorer: Ardene's House

The style reminds me of the doctors when I was a kid, the same flat roof but this one has cupboards and wardrobes which is confusing. I would say it hails post-war as you mentioned, maybe from the 1960's.

Yeah, the brick-and-glass-block would certainly suggest '60s aesthetics in parts of the US. I'm not as familiar with trends in the UK, but the timeline tends to line up. The tub is definitely built in, but the range top could be odd litter out of place. Were businesses still built with private apartments for the proprietor in the '60s?

Yes they were, cops used to live in houses that doubled as little stations. They have all gone now, but it's one example that springs to mind.

In those years, everything was government run, the doctors, the dentist's and the cops.. the latter of which is unchanged.
