was it ever there?
This photo was taken in 2015. We didn't drive past very often but always looked to see how long it would last.
I took this shot in November or 2019. Sadly you wouldn't know there was ever a house there unless you knew better.
What a precarious position for any house to be in! Looking at your photos the land does not appear to have eroded any further so I presume the house was demolished?
There are various old houses in various states of dis-repair that I look for when on the roads, and it is fascinating to see what happens to them over time - some are left to decay, others removed completely Blessings Maxine
It was a fine old house with I guess lots of memories for someone so a shame it had to go. I guess it may have fallen down during bad weather or been demolished when you weren't looking?
So true...one will never know it shared that space. It is a bit sad...kine of like the barns around here that are now half there because you can envision the history. Hopefully, the family moved to a better home with nice scenery because I would think they would miss the view here. :)
A lot of memories disappear with a house, I suppose. You can only hope that it was abandoned because a better residence was available, although it is curious that it was abandoned (apparently) rather than sold.
Heavens, talk about completely disappeared. All so beautiful and green now though....or it was in 2019
ReplyDeleteSadly even the trees have gone as well

ReplyDeleteOne always wonders what the story was behind it all.
ReplyDeleteSo sad to see someone's home just disappear.
ReplyDeleteThe nature is taking back the terrain. I hope the humans no longer needed their home -

ReplyDeleteWow.
ReplyDeleteIt is sad to see something disappear, in that place was the house and some trees.

ReplyDeleteFascinating! I love old things. Families lived there to make memories. Now it's all gone.
ReplyDeleteWow, das sieht ja ganz toll aus.
ReplyDeleteSo wunderschöne grüne Wiesen.
Liebe Grüße Eva und ein schönes Wochenende.

ReplyDeleteHopefully it got moved to another property to be used again.
