A SPOOKY 30-room manor house has been left to rot after its owners died three years ago.

Eerie pics show its walls and leaky ceilings covered in black mould in Oxford.



Urban explorer Steven Bailey captured an indoor swimming pool filled with grime and a wooden living room with a stunning 10ft-wide cast-iron fireplace.

The former fish breeding farm was converted into grand manor in 2003 and abandoned in 2018 after both of its owners passed away.

Steven, 40, said: “The level of mould in this place was insane.

“It was all over the wall and ceiling and furniture and was due to the fact that the roof had a huge leak in it, so water was dripping through and soaking everything.




“Despite this, a lot of the manor was still in a remarkably good condition."

“There were ornate pieces of wooden furniture in most of the rooms and pictures of the previous owners of the house and even their pets in a lot of the rooms.

“The most interesting find was definitely the large and grand fireplace in the living room. That would have been an amazing place to sit and relax in the past.

“It had at least thirty rooms, an indoor pool and a huge pond out in the garden which was amazing to see."

Last year a spooky abandoned mansion was on sale for £400,000 in Devon last year.

That property had eight bedrooms and ten acres of land but also needed a major spruce up.

The price of the mansion and the land is less than a London flat, and comes with huge areas of greenery.
