down the road

0

Down the road from the Fletcher farm on 4th Line (Grey County), is another old two storey brick house that has been abandoned.  These photos were taken in mid-November, 2012.

red brick farm house on a small hill. It is surrounded by trees but because it is November, there are no leaves on the trees. The house is two storeys tall and has a center gabled roof.

A very pink wall on which someone has drawn a picture of what looks like a dinosaur that is sitting on his hind legs. On the back of the dinosaur, there is a small boy who is clinging to the dinosaur's neck

Looking through an open doorway into a room that has a layer of debris on the floor. The ceiling has fallen (or been removed) and just the wood can be seen.

Close up of the lower part of a doorway. In the foreground are walls covered with blue and white wallpaper. The wood trim is bright yellow. The doorway opens into a room whose floor is covered with debris. In the second room is a door that is open to the outside and lots of sunlight is coming into the room.

Sunshine through the open door lights up the dirt and debris.
