- George was born in 1905, when his father was 25 and his mother was 27. He was an only child.
Eve was born in 1903, when her father was 24 and her mother was 25. She had a sister that was 3 years younger than her.
George and Eve got married in 1934.
The earliest date we could find of George and Eve residing in the property was 1947.
Eve sadly passed away in 1968. It was a sudden unexpected death.
We found a box of letters that George and Eve sent to each other while George was away on duty. Always starting with Darling and ending from your guy.
In 1970 George was awarded with an imperial service medal by her majesty the queen.
This means George was a civil servant for 25 years plus.
Unfortunately George sadly passed away in 1996.
We did find a birthday card which said “To Dad” Happy Birthday love from Jen. however from research we could not find anything to indicate George and Eve having any children.

What an interesting little place, you could spend all day there
I do wish all urban explorers were as meticulous as you two!! And the thing hanging behind the door in the pitch black room is a bed warmer. Thanks for sharing!!
I noticed the bed warmer, too!
What an absolutely BEAUTIFUL cottage! If I could I'd buy it and fix 'er right up! I bet there is a ton of wonderful vibes in that place.
This guy was truly Mr Survivor xx
Great intro Meghan really interesting great find loved it ..I'm happy ..
What a stunning old cottage. Someone needs to rescue the antiques left inside. Stay safe 🙏❤💓💙. Love the explore.
You twp do a fantastic job, and are very respectful. This place makes me so sad, that these peoples entire lives are reduced to this.
Great cottage👍🏼
The Painting the Blue boy by Gainsborough, my granny had a replica of that painting. Plus Frys chocolate with the cream center.
I loved that chocolate. What a beautiful cottage, very picture box. Reminds me of Dorset. Love the beam ceilings. I'm surprised this beautiful cottage has not been sold. Plus someone is definitely looking after this home. Some very interesting pieces. But what a beauty. 👍💜💕🤗🤗🤗🇿🇦🇬🇧
It's an old bed warming pan that was hanging on the wall. You put coals in them & they were supposed to heat up the bed for you. Ty for the video
Wow! That place was so packed full of stuff, to the point of hoarding, but differently, everything was in order and neatly stacked. They loved memorabilia, art, books, communication. They must have been really interesting people. Thanks guys for quietly covering a huge job of recording two people's lifetimes.
Amazing house yet sad story along with it. Excellent video can't wait for the next 😀 👍
Definitely a very old microscope you were right! I loved the little 1947 Calendar, the Year they moved into the Cottage - so romantic and sentimental I loved this Video thank you so much can’t wait for the next one! 💗☮️🐨🇦🇺
The painting with the boy wearing blue was a reproduction of Gainsborough's "The Blue Boy", I do believe.
Beautiful place!
What a lot of stuff.someone needs to go through it all , there's no telling what they would find. Great video guys Thank You Both.Take care of each other.👍❤️🇺🇸
Another great find 🙌🏻👏😎
What a lovely gem of a place. So many things I recognised in the house my grandparents lived in. Thank you both for a brilliant video. Cant wait for next one xx
Was this your grandparents house?
The hanging copper pot on the wall is a bed warmer. Amazing microscope! Really cool motorcycle glasses in the medicine cabinet!
Absolutely stunning! So many books. Must’ve been there past time no TV. It’s funny there were quite a few companies that are from my hometown in California. Kelloggs Heintz.
I’m surprised there’s not more mold. It doesn’t look like there’s any. Absolutely amazing! Well it’s almost like a hoarders house but organized. Looking forward to the history.
I have to say you guys did an absolute amazing job making sure we saw it all. There was so much! Truly fascinating. Thank you!
What a beautiful little cottage! I wonder how old it is. I bet it was really some thing in its day
I've noticed a few cottages with thatched roofs in these shows, are usually a lot less moldy than slate roofs, must be due to the thatch being better at venting the moisture or something?🤔✌
What a beautiful place thanks guys really enjoyed it 😊
Thanks for sharing. Meg thank you for the research behind the family. True love and unfortunately someone is always left behind. I imagine they are together again and that is a wonderful thing. The books in this home is amazing. The fact he was knighted is amazing. I hope the antique gun needs to be hidden from prying eyes and thief’s and looters.
Fantastic keep them coming
The two white “stands” in the China cabinet would have had plates displayed on them, not photo frames.
Another great find loved looking around thank you both for sharing this with us 😃
The music book on the piano says:-'Celebrated Waltzes'. Music for dancing the waltz to.
I sure enjoyed this video guys you explain everything so well and the history on this home thank you for sharing
The stove behind the paraffin heater is a solid fuel stove for burning wood or coal, depending on what temperatures it can tolerate. That is why it has those narrow strips of heat resistant glass set into the top half, so you can see your fire.
I saw an argos bag in the video.Argos opened in the uk on 13 Nov 1972 so someone has been in the house after the death of the owner.
What a house filled with so many books,I really enjoyed the video stay safe guy's xx
Fantastic place. Thankyou.
Love the history at the beginning of the video. I love to watch especially the antiques and jewellery and some things bring back some fond memories of my youth. As I'm old and disabled and can't do the things I used to be able to, otherwise I'd be out there with you guys. Your doing a grand job keep on doing what yor doing. 💖
Wow what fantastic place so many interesting things inside. I love that Megan gave some history at the beginning of the video other explorers don't bother to do that. That's what sets you guy's apart from the rest and makes your channel even better 💗
Everything very clean but cluttered he had everything to hand bless him xx
Great video guys, lovely to watch as I went here Saturday. Have subbed to your channel too
Interesting place. Well done 👍🏻
Brilliant explore 👌🏻👍🏻
love this vid .
Someones been in there since 2010 that's the new argos logo on that bag.
That morrisons bag isnt 1996 its more recent in 1996 the bags were white opaque.
FELICIDADES GRAN ENCANTO DE LUGAR HERMOSOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Cant wait guys!!! x
watching now ..
Lol I'd want to tidy up, I'm sure at one time it would have been immaculate, the furniture looks really nice.
Love your show is there , or will there be merchandise so looking to buy a tee and Hoodia for my wife and I. Always looking for to your next show, and it was wonderful chatting live with a couple a days ago. Love to both
Hi Lyndon. If you click on the channel page there is a link in the banner. We enjoy chatting to everyone aswell. There wont be another premier till next week, but a vid will be up Sunday. Were off to Wales now to get some more places 😁
The thing you thought was a hot water cylinder was a pre washing machine boiler. They could be run by gas, electric or, in even earlier times, by lighting a fire under a more substantial one. You filled the boiler with water, put your sheets, and white clothes etc in and heated the water to boiling and kept it hot for a while. That took much of the dirt out. Then, using tongs, you lifted the washing into a bowl to rinse it through with soapy water, rinsed it again in two lots of clear water and hung it out to dry.
By then, having turned off the heat source, the water had cooled a bit and coloured items could be left to soak a little before washing by hand as before.
Arduous laundering by modern standards, but easier than all being done by hand in a big tub of cold water. That's how laundry was done when my mother was a child in the early 1920s. Grandma C's boiler ran on gas as did their room lights until 1961.
You can tell someone was packing up all things are in groups
I used to own one of the radio shack intercoms at 17:55, there is probably a smaller box that goes outside the front door and you pressed the button to speak to the other person. The muddle at 18:25 reminded me of national lampoon's Christmas vacation - I am amazed that house didn't go up in flames or the man didn't get electrocuted on those frayed cables!!. The item at 18:39 is an urn - just think of it as a large kettle - one could open the lid once boiled to soak clothes. Love the spin dryer at 24:05 - great little machines if you are hand washing clothes. That fuseboard at 25:35 is definitely not up to modern standards. You should have broken an egg from that fridge - you really were brave to open it. The Megger at 47:20 is kind of an early version of a modern multimeter - you use it to measure electrical voltages and currents. Love the vintage shortwave equipment - it should be saved not left to rot. Lots of valve equipment in the last room including a valve amplifier wired to that turntable and speakers.
That thing hanging on the wall is a bed warmer. Before people had central heating and relied on fireplaces, people would put fireplace embers or coal in the warmers and warm their beds up before tucking in for the night.
I love that you guys tell the history of the homes you’re in, but when a house is a Bandan and you say over and over but you don’t want to destroy anything just let the weather do that, when the house crashes down. Lotta history lost what people do is leave it there to rot
I've never seen a red boots logo before @20:16 and for some reason it's been distracting me the rest of the vid. 🤣 great explore so far.
When you compare these British abandoned homes with ones from other countries, you realise what hoarders we tend to be!
The copper pan behind the door is a bed warmer x
That piece of pottery is Spanish, 19th century made in la rambla,
Unglazed to keep the contents cool , it fills at the back and you drink from the front
Thank you so much. It intrigued us so much
I think there's a hidden story here. There was definitely someone here after George died in 1996. Was James someone else? A son maybe? It's always so hard to pin down but there are signs of life from well after that date. Yes, quite right about that microscope and as others have pointed out, the long handled brass thing is a replica of an old bed warmer. At one time they became popular ornamental items to hang on walls in older properties with other brass or copper items. It's certainly a well-packed house with some interesting old artefacts. That hot water 'cyclinder' is what we used to call a 'copper'. It was used for boiling clothes, especially the sheets and babies' nappies in the days before we all had washing machines. Those 'Osocool' fridges are camping fridges. The cabinet upstairs with the pots in it is literally known as a 'pot cupboard' to hold the errr... overnight facilities! What an amazing early sewing machine was standing next to the bookcase! Mateus Rose wine! At one time there was scarcely a house in UK that didn't have that bottle lurking around somewhere, full or empty with a candle in it. It was the generic wine of the 70s and 80s when wine drinking first became popular. Either that or German Blue Nun or an Italian chianti with it raffia covered bottle. This was a really big explore with so much to see. There was a complete life history there. Lovely guys..... I'm happy!
yayy cant wait
@29.29, it's a mini hot water unit for the sink etc, a lot of small companies had them for the staff as a kind of kettle because of it's capacity
Just found your channel and subbed, just curious will these places just be left to rot or are they for sale or in a kind of limbo? It’s a shame these items will probably be stolen or burnt, lots of historical items probably worth a bit, I’m stressed lol.
alot of the places are left to rot unfortunatly. Once the wrong people start going they tend to be set on fire. I really hope that doesnt happen to this property!
@@BackInTimeMC thank you for the reply, it’s a pity, I can imagine even if the council took over, most of if not everything would be dumped in a skip, we live in a throwaway society, shame.
@backInTime_MC Its so sad. It makes you think about life. Im 50 now and since 3,2 years without my father ,he became 93 ( was born october 1925), and my mum oct 1927,she passed away suddenly in 1990 beeing 63 my biologicel father even born in 1918 he died when i was 5. I love these gems❤ its so sad,would love to live in a cottage like this. Feeling beeing born in the wrong time.
I call this cottage, organised chaos!
The cylindrical item in the cupboard is a freestanding urn for boiling water for making tea for groups of people for camps, garden parties etc.
It is actually called a copper for boiling clothes my mother had one. a tea urn is much smaller!
@@janettaylor153 That is not a traditional copper though. A traditional copper is a permanent installation built usually of bricks, supporting a large metal vessel, which would have contained the water & possessing underneath it a firehole into which wood or possibly coal would be fed in order to heat the water. I know because I have lived in two houses with them.
The item in the cupboard could possibly be used for boiling clothes but I have used them when doing voluntary work, to make tea for community events, entertainments, & courses & they are commonly known as tea urns in such settings, though I am sure they are known by other terms. When you are making tea for hundreds of people you need a lot of water.
Suprised it's not trashed after all this time. Perhaps you guys could contact a neighbour or English heritage to secure the property to save it from being wrecked. That piano is in remarkable condition and needs to be saved
Doesn't look at the dates on anything misses loads of stuff its been abandoned recently.
Sorry HJ, I was just in awe of this place, there was so much in the property. Ill do my best next time.
The item you wondered about was a bed warmer. One with a short handle is a butlers keeper.
Why so much stuff? Does the stuff eliminate the loneliness? The batteries were pretty old….beautiful piano…. Once removed from box very possible to be a an old style microscope…great narrative…. Sad that no one had come back to properly handle their property instead of abandonment..
It'd be good if all them books could be saved. Once they're gone they're gone forever, and those are not being printed anymore. I bet there's a lot of good reading material there.
It’s a bed warmer the pan with the long handle
With all that cool equipment in there I can't help wondering if the guy did a bit of spying.
12:06 looks like an old bed warmer.
I suspect this because they used one just like this in the first Pirates of the Caribbean 😂.
It's a boiler for washing an heating hot water for maybe bath
In the kitchen. That small cooker is a calor gas cooker, so they have some electrical cooking items as well, in case they run out of gas. They seem to have gone for multiple options for cooking, heat & light.
That "Corvette 2,000" is just a glorified electric kettle attached to the wall for fast heating of water for a sink.
The Russell Hobbs thing is an alarm clock combined with a coffee maker. Wakes you up & makes you coffee. The Osocool things look like cool boxes or old ice boxes from the era before fridges when an ice man would deliver blocks of ice to put in your cool box type thing to help keep perishable foods cool.
Gilet is said 'ji-lay'. Yeah I know that is how I said it, till someone told me. Kind of French sounding.
The guy was obviously a ham radio operator!
Man, that house is like a cram jam full thrift store!
Take back my earlier comment. he probably knew more about electricity than I ever will.
Books on Nuremberg........how appropriate for the times we live in!
The panio is very old as it has what remains of candle holders.
That doll is beautiful thinking it’s worth money
Theres an old paraffin heater on top of the stuff thats across the bath too.
12:09 could be a long handled foot warmer / bed warmer / like a hot water bottle. Maybe.
It's a bed warmer. You put hot coal in it and slide it between the covers
They look like they become hoarders in their later years well the husband did so much stuff left it’s such a shame no one has come to sort the house out
Looks like active woodworm in that first cabinet
Yea surprised they haven't found the piano they love walnut wood.
I WOULDN'T BE AT ALL SURPRISED IF SIR JAMES BEATTY WAS BRITISH INTELLIGENCE...THEREFORE A LONER...HE MUST HAVE RELATIVES....
As much as you think it’s a lot of stuff wait till you get older and your kids will say look at all the stuff We all do it
It's a bed warmer you put hot cinders in it an stick it in your bed move it around to warm the bed
those were bed warmers you placed hot ashes?in then sljd them under covers
Was there a TV in there i didn't notice one, i thought everyone owned a TV even if they don't watch it.
There was an an ancient one beside the water heater in the press, pity I couldn't see it properly.
He must have a motor cycle the glasses were in the bathroom cabinet and you missed it
Think your right think it is a microscope
LA CASA DE LA CULTURA WOOOOOOOOO
Maybe his cousins will come and sort the place out I hope so sort out what they want to take or live there did he make a will saying who gets what in the family they could sell the house or keep it
I counted about 45 power outlets, on top of that there is a fridge.kettle.toaster and a water boiler in the kitchen alone. Then there is several electric heaters. Please please tell me that board in the kitchen which looks like something Thomas Edison put there himself is not in any way shape or form responsible for powering that place. That's before I mention the artistic adapter usage Christ that place is a death trap. Mind you brilliant video. Thanks.
Reminded me of national lampoon's Christmas vacation lol. I too was amazed the place didnt go up in flames.
They are prints of old masters
bed warmer
Its like an aladins cave so many different things in there some worth a considerable amount of money and supiseing clean considerable the amount of things in there im supised they didn't have a house fire with the dodgy electrics love the gas boiler in the cupboard my mum had one and used to boil the white sheets up every Monday wash day gosh that makes me sound old 😆
Dissreguard my comment got the death date wrong.
Was comic books not big in England
Its a copper bedwarmer
Lol yes that is a microscope 😎🇺🇸👍
A mega is a test meter
It's a bed warming pan
