Wow, I am just in total awe, for so may reasons!
A) how on earth can people just abandoned all of that stuff (except for the mouldy food and the CREEPY doll..)
B) Love the interior architecture, specially the rounded windows and fireplaces which you don't imagine seeing from the outside walls.
C) amazing photos and personal memorabilia (how could they leave those???)
D) Many of the people were actually smiling in those photos- amazing for photos from that era too...
And the treasures that were/are there!
Unbelievable how people can completely disregard these amazing historical and personal artifacts...and the beautiful timber furniture...😧 OMG and those ancient and valuable hardcore hardbound leather books...I'd love to know what was in them and their year of publication.

What a great exploration that was, but so much better for you being there and feeling such a mixture of emotions too.

Now you've just given me so many more questions that no-one will be able to answer...😧

Thank you for your observations @chocolatescorpi
Yes very old stuff, there were a few envelopes addressed to a Mrs Williams from 10years ago, in a hospital, so I guess she never came back, and her children brought them back and just left them there.
I loved the hand drawn catalogue of furniture that pre dates WW1 and I always love old photos too

Yeah that hand drawn sales pamphlet was a great score!

i just can't comprehend leaving a place like that with everything in it to go to rack and ruin...usually some money hungry person(s) or govt agency or bank comes in to clear everything out and sell it all after Mrs Williams doesn't get home from hospital...so suprising to see that didn't happen there...or other places too.

I guess sometimes probate can be quite difficult especially if a will is not left.

Yeah but that when the public trustees and other gold diggers usually jump on it quicker than a fly on the BBQ...
