This abandoned mansion was built in 1876 by Ernest Seth-Smith for his elder brother Karl. This was the so-called house of entertainment of the future owner, ending up in the hands of the Army Operational Research Group.
Abandoned building, was built in 1876 by Ernest Seth Smith for his brother Charles. The new building as if absorbed in himself, standing a little house. 22 years later, in 1898, the mansion was sold to Sir Charles Tennanta, a wealthy industrialist and patron of art. He was then 75 years old, and here he married his second wife Margaret, who bore him four children. Tennantów main estates were in Scotland, and this yard was to be home with a surprise outside of London - the square on which were built used the big popularity.

As you may have noticed, nothing on this site has been added for some time. But no, I did not leave this project, I'm just busy with others. Currently I am building a website called Fshoq!, where I'm writing a travel blog, where you can find both my new and those old adventures. So if you are waiting for more of my texts or pictures, this is the place I think it is worth looking into. After I will make Fshoq! site more popular, I'm going to get back to Into the Shadows, as I'm having more and more explorations of abandoned places to describe. Meanwhile, see you later!
