Great Britain Clockmakers House - June 2019

[BikinGlynn]

Time really stood still in this place in more ways than one!

I have little history on this delightful place, Obviously the original owner was a watch / clock maker who I believe died some time ago. It is rumoured that his daughter then lived in the property into old age, but why the house was never "cleared out" remains a mystery to me!

This place has suddenly become live due to some careless social media posts but Im pleased to say is now sealed & the local clock & watch museum are in the process of clearing anything of historical interest.
I was lucky enough to get in while there was a fair bit to see but regret it was a rushed visit & I left with sub standard pics for which I apologise in advance!
Finding this sealed gave mixed emotions as I really wanted to get some better pics but really think it is the best for this one.

Hope you enjoy the mix of camera & phone pics I did get
