Boarded up and decaying - Two rows of 1930's redbrick terraces, facing the A38 Flyover in Patchway. The owners of the garage next door have almost realised there 30+ year dream of demolishing these houses and building a car park - what they described as 'one of the most expensive car parks ever'. In 2008 when the Google Street View car drove past these houses, including this one, still appeared lived in and habitable. However in a bid to push the last resident out, and convince the council that demolition was necessary, they were left by the garage in the most appalling state. Soon they fell into the hands of vandals and arsonists. This house was very badly fire damaged at some point.
In the weeks and months after this photo was taken I noticed somebody had fly tipped a huge pile of waste in this front garden, so it was almost impossible to stand where this picture was taken. In March 2012 the final resident left his house and the terraces were pulled down in August 2012.
