Abandoned Cottages

A couple of years ago, when it was still possible to get inside, I posted a few shots of the interior of these abandoned cottages. Now the land on which they stand has been sold and the new owner has bricked up all the openings, sealing inside the memories of the families who lived there.

So what happens to the cottages - they will all fall down on the inside surely! How very sad - someone should write stories about these cottages!

[Christine]

That's sad. Abandoned history!

[Annie D]

I too wonder what happens to them now - beautiful stonework

[Joan Robillard]

What is his plans for the land? Sort of irregular repeating pattern.

Wonderful use of light and shadow to accent the textures

[Anita Campbell]

What's the new owner going to do with the property?

[Jane Pittenger]

Looks like they are full of stories

[Joanne Diochon]

Nice shot, love the textures and the shadows. To try to be fair to the new owner he might be justifiably worried about the liability of some one poking around inside, being injured, and suing, or is that sort of thing just a North American occurance?

Great lighting... interesting story...

So many homes and memories, nice record, Richard.

This is a wonderfully derelict, overgrown image

Hopefully its a temporary shutting up of history. Love the light and perspective. BOB!
