I'm afraid that this is the only image I have of it, it's an old scanned print that has an awful colour cast

6 to 7 hundred thou to by and probably many thousand more to turn it into what you might call a home. I dread to think what it would be worth once full done up. Somewhere between 1 and 2 million, but it wouldn't surprise me if it could be made to be worth even more.

I wounder if they will except rubber cheques?

I know.................


I've driven/ridden past it myself a few times & dreamed about it.

It'd make a wonderful 'It's Not Easy Being Green' (Dick Strawbidge) property, especially if there's any water on the land

Crcking place but it will no doubt sell for over 1 million, and then youll need another million to convert the cottages and barns into usable properties, roofs, windows, structural work and then some!

For that i doubt there are any services either so youll need a sewage works (something like a reed bed) for them, LPG supply and to get connected to water if it doesnt have a spring or borehole costs a fortune!

Still, nice if you have 2 million + to spare, plenty of potential :)

Surely you would have 'bin down' to lower thong not 'bin up' ;)
