Built in the 1930s and abandoned by the 1970s, these two units at 25 Grange Road, off Orchard are loaded with stories of hauntings and myth but seriously after i peeked in, it just looks like a really misunderstood beautiful place that needs some serious refurbishment.
One lot is now occupied by construction workers who work in current developments surrounding the premis , possibly an illegal squatter, i'm not too sure. Tarnished by poor maintenance, weathering and vandalism, these houses need looking after. Now if only i was rich enough to buy it and convert it into an arts school.

oh wow! this is a great blog. i finished reading all the entries at one go. ok... i admit i did scan through a few longer entries but just because it's already 3.20am :-)
ooo wow! thanks! :) help pass it around!
I hope that someone will adopt or buy this house and make it a home again - it is an amazing place.
wow, really? 1930's? cool. i live over at grange heights, 19 grange road, and ive seen all the construction "workers". all they do is walk around in towels. pretty disturbing. but i think the house is amazing, and a renovation would be awesome. now, ive tried to hop that fence (and im a good fence-hopper) and never succeded. how did you get in there??? :)
many thanks,
Edy
