The land at 332 Spring Lane in Nottinghamshire, which was sold at an auction, has been cleared to reveal a secret abandoned house. The discovery of the three-bedroom home hidden within the undergrowth has fascinated locals. The house is said to have belonged to an old man who lived alone and worked as a book binder while keeping bees and making honey as a hobby.
Among the debris of the Gedling property is an old pair of brogues, a tin of assorted biscuits and a copy of the Daily Express newspaper from 1983. Six months ago, you'd have thought you were just looking at woodland. But now, after selling at an auction, the land at 332 Spring Lane has been cleared to reveal a secret abandoned house - like something out of a fairytale. Even from the top, satellite shots would have anyone believe that the land at the site was just a strip of shrubbery.
But deep within the undergrowth lurked a three-bedroom home - and its discovery has fascinated locals. The trees and bushes on the land were cleared just weeks ago by a local company after the property was sold for a sizeable £455,000 fee at auction in June 2023. And now, among the debris is an old pair of brogues, stained glass windows, a tin of assorted biscuits and a copy of the Daily Express newspaper from 1983. Some locals in the know say the house belonged to an old man who lived alone and worked as a book binder while keeping bees and making honey as a hobby
