Report - Abandoned House near Tavistock, Devon, May 2018

[GCW]

They died sadly. I can’t remember if the Husband or Wife first, but there ashes along with Sons ashes where in the house until idiots disrespected them

It’s shit. We live in such a fragile world where it’s easy to be forgotten

That implies someone was still living there to put the ashes there, it might technically be the governments (or local cat home) if there is no more family.

The first person died (I think the husband) leaving the other to live on there own in the house with the ashes, until they died alone, and then the house was empty for several years.

Managed to get to this one today. Very grateful to DrGonzo for the heads up on this one. Has been posted before recently.

Amazing views from this house of the Tamar Valley. You have the main house and one large outbuilding split into 3 sections. The rooms in the house are good size, even the loft is a large space if converted.

Been empty since 2011. It’s a pity you don’t know the reason it’s empty. So many photos in the house, a lot dated 1991/92 of them doing up the house and building up the out buildings. I can only assume this is when they brought the house. Pictures of inside the house looking tidy, loved and lived in. Maybe someone died, moved had no will? Who knows.

Without giving to much away they were called Terry and Anne. From early photos must of been in there 50’s. Anne was artistic, a room upstairs as an art room, and in the outbuilding a pottery room with oven kilns and turntable.

When we first walked in was greeted with a knife stuck in the stool and what looked a lot like blood.

Had lots more photos but only lets you attach 30. View attachment 764509View attachment 764511View attachment 764512
