"This old House"... by tellefella

"This old House"...

this old house is one of the the last remaining grand old buildings in Officer Vic....it sitts alone and abandoned and in danger of suffocation by the blackberry's.. surrounded on all sides by development and modernisation it's days are surely but unfortunately numbered...
The price we pay for progress ! This is a glorious capture of a charming cottage engulfed with aggression by more than one devastating force.

Nice documentation of a sad story. I hate to see old buildings abandoned this way. Such an undignified way to go.

This is a lovely picture that you can see at one time had a lovely home on it. And yes the blackberries do take over. FAV

Great shot John. As a genealogist, my immediate thoughts always go to who lived there, what brought them there, where did they come from and what happened to them.

Great shot John. Bet they made squillions when they sold the land that surrounds this old place.
