By March 2013 this was the view from the main road
The house now stands in isolated splendour. It has been painted and does look rather grand. Though it is a shame there is not a single tree remaining.
Looking at what was once the estate gardens and orchards, with the railway line in the background -
The end of an era.

End of an era. Right words. Its a pity they cut down all the trees. Development of the property should have been planned properly. Retaining some of the old big trees and incorporating it into the development should have bee done. But, there's no turning back now. The house seems so desolate in a big empty ground. Hope they will preserve the house, but base on the pictures of the house when it was used as a film location and now, even the house may not last.
ReplyDeleteSo true that the house looks desolate. It would look so much better surrounded by the old trees.
ReplyDeleteOther people also say the house may not last - even though the planners say it will be saved!
