I passed by this today by chance and it gave me the heebie jeebies. I heard in the past there were some kind of problem with these houses but all of this type facing the road are empty and decaying. In other words a vision of what our ghost estates are going to turn into in another 5 years. These are about 10 years old AFAIK.
I guess that was part of the problem. I can’t mention the rest as it may not be in the public domain but it is worse than a bit (very big bit) of damp.
