Big business throwing their weight around building flats to sell at £250,000 a pop. No one lives in them, they're just bought and sold as investments. This oak survived over 200 years but didn't fit in with their plans. Any decent business would have used it as a feature and seen it as an asset.<BR/>I'm really, really angry about it...Barkfoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12964258801267218827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1946839117757998659.post-13878361343768869562008-05-20T14:46:00.000-07:002008-05-20T14:46:00.000-07:00Lesley - It's been run down for as long as I can r...Lesley - It's been run down for as long as I can remember. An old guy owns it and won't sell but doesn't look after it either. It's a real shame to see it deteriorate. It used to have intricate wooden fretwork along the eaves and a quaint little porch. I'd love to adopt it!Barkfoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12964258801267218827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1946839117757998659.post-43783514696692228322008-05-20T02:03:00.000-07:002008-05-20T02:03:00.000-07:00What a sad story. :( Why did they cut it down?!What a sad story. :( Why did they cut it down?!Flodertenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15492747691320196314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1946839117757998659.post-76921450929897839532008-05-19T14:55:00.000-07:002008-05-19T14:55:00.000-07:00That cottage is adorable!
