    That Massey Ferguson Tractor was registered 1975 and last taxed until July 1998.

    A fascinating video there .They don’t come much better than this. It always amazes me that the power is still connected in some of these abandoned buildings, especially with the rocketing cost of energy today! You have brought us yet another great explore Colin.The Massey Ferguson 35 brought back memories. We had one in my first workplace. I drove it once. That is a classic tractor now and collectible. It was sad to see the state of the Sherpa pick up truck. These are mega rare now. The Massey Ferguson 165 is definitely worth saving, as is the 35. These are hardly old tractors. I bet that the Diesel engines on them could be started fairly easily. Yeah, they don’t make them like that anymore.

    How sad it’s so dilapidated, and the floors have come down. It was scary watching you climb those stairs and walk around in those bedrooms.
    Lovely find this one, I can imagine he’d been old school walking around with a flat cap, and some overalls, and a pipe maybe.
    I wonder what happened for this to be left?

    As a keen gardener this makes me a bit sad. Cause even in Australia independent small family run nurseries like this were common. But they were all forced into closure due to the new competition of huge multinational companies like Bunnings starting up in the mid 90’s. people stopped going to small family run nurseries. Globalisation put an end to them. And the computer age happened at this time too, and older private nursery owners struggled to learn to do business this way. Shame, because the older horticultural ppl were always the most knowledgeable. And most experienced. Great video!

    Bearded Explorer, I know you’d probably not be that interested but know that there is a company in the UK that encourages ppl to refer UK abandoned properties to them. Because they try, often successfully to locate the owner try and buy the abandoned property off them. They seem to be a London based company. Called YouSpotProperty. If you supply an address and pic for them of a property anywhere in the UK, they offer either a voucher and/or if they manage to buy and re-sell the property they will often agree to pay the person who alerted them to the abandoned property 1% of the sale price (if they re-sell it) with a limit at £10,000 I think. They know there’s 1000’s of abandoned properties in the UK. But where are they? That’s the problem. Also, Often local councils do not even know about local abandoned properties. But it’s definitely also a very good idea to alert Council of an abandoned property you know too. Becos they will often buy it and renovate it, or at least try and rescue the house.
