Sometimes when I’m out and about I see things that just need a little extra detail. The house is in my local area, it was owned by either the local councillor or minister. Anyway after he passed away his daughter inherited the property. After some considerable months doing it up a bit at a time a group of youths set the place on fire (they weren’t local but they were caught). As the house was unoccupied by the daughter and in a semi rural location it was well ablaze by the time that anyone alerted the fire brigade. It is now a ruin and I think the daughter has sold the land but nothing has been done as yet. It’s now boarded up to make it safe and the roof has been demolished.
