You're so brave Ian.

hmmm!

I always fancied it too! It would be very special indeed with the right owner 🤔 sadly my pockets would prove inadequate for the task 😢 so I have to 'put up' with the forge 😀

hmmm!

Yep - the far water is flooded fields out to around a mile and half from the river. The house hasn't been sold to my knowledge, but has had some emergency work done to prevent further collapse, such as a tin roof (looks like tiles nuts actually tin!). Interestingly, the floor level remains high  and dry, the house is built about 8 ft above the ground level. They knew what they were doing! You would need a boat though. An enterprising person could turn it into a superb house, the main accommodation is above the flood and if you added a floating parking area / pontoon with an attached boathouse you'd be set for all eventualities!!

So is the far water a flooded field, and did you travel over it or avoid the 12 bore shotgun response? Looks well scary though. That nearly flooded house has just been sold hasn't it? I hope refurbishment efforts are not spoiled.
