Broken heart

I was on lunch today and walked past this abandoned house which I have never noticed before (photography is really helping me take FAR more notice of my surroundings).

 

The house is a light green colour and it has these lovely red faded wooden window shutters with hearts carved out of them and paint peeling off, it has such a lot of character despite being somewhat run down. I don't know how long this house has been abandoned but most of the windows are either smashed or boarded up.

 

I wasn't able to get any closer to get a better angle as it is private property so instead I was stood at the front gate leaning in as best I could trying to get a shot of the shutters. Ideally I would have preferred to get a straight-on shot but I simply couldn't pass up the opportunity to take a picture, it's just a shame the sky was so bland.
