Williamstown House
Deep in the heart of the countryside lies this extraordinary Victorian house. Three stories high this is the biggest building i have been to by far. In major decay it is such a shame that buildings like this are left to go to waste, but to have seen this house in all its glory would have been something to behold. As you enter the back of the house it looks even bigger than it does from the front. With many more windows and doors and even an outhouse. Although most of the house was inaccessible with some of the roof falling down, doors off their hinges and a lot of rubble blocking doors. There is a big stairs to the left as you walk in the door but was a little to unstable to go up to the first floor, if it still existed. Past the stairs and to the left was a big room which looked like a dining room at one stage with a fire place to the left in the room and another door which looked like it went to another room but was just a cupboard. There were many rooms to the sides and without a torch you were lost, but from what i saw a lot of wildlife had made this house home. From the outside it was visible that not a lot of the roof remained. From the inside the damage was clear even more. The two pillars on each side of the door once represented this grand house and estate. This was a very eerie and somewhat scary place to be inside with creeks and bangs every few seconds, possibly the wildlife, possibly something else.Whatever it was has made one of the most beautiful derelict houses i have ever seen home, i only wish i could make it home to.
