A very creepy abandoned house in Heather, Leicestershire. Thinking it's Victorian? I heard about it from my son - so of course I had to take a look. I was not expecting this. The house can not be seen from the roadside. There is a long, tree-lined overgrown track leading up to it. The garden is huge with mature trees. Sadly, its now neglected & I'd love to know why...

Heather

While Heather may not have many sights to explore, venturing just a little farther will lead you to top things to see and do like Bardon Close and Sence Valley Country Park.

Heather
Footpath from Appleby Road Clearly not heavily used, the line of the path has not been clearly maintained across the crop. The next waymark can be seen in the distance.
