This abandoned farmstead, stands in splendid isolation on the high windswept moors west of Edmundbyers in Co Durham, North East England.
Far enough off the beaten track to have otherwise succumbed to vandalism, it is only the often harsh weather conditions taking their toll on the fabric of the building.
Must admit to a fondness for visiting such places, always wanting to know who lived within the walls and the logistics of the lives they led.
In 1911, one William Palmer, aged 29, was living here with his wife Isabella, also 29 years old and their young family of Isabella, six, Mabel, four, James, two and John, 7 months.
It intrigues me to think about the logistics of living in such an isolated location, especially in the often harsh conditions of winter.
