Aah ! - I spoke too soon ! --wonderful-- the cooking range of an open fire with the oven by its side built in cupboards in the alcove by the chimney breast !!! The plastering or rendering peeling off exposing the brick walls -- the old metal window frames and so much wood littering the floor !! It is amazing how soon nature takes over --as I see some evergreen saplings growing in front of the window ! Why are we always SO interested in old and derelict buildings ?
