Weired layout though. You have to go through a bedroom to access a bedroom.  

Not an unknown arrangement in older country houses. I once rented an ex-farmhouse in France in which a smaller bedroom was situated beyond a main bedroom. It was intended as a child's room.

there’s a couple on the HNC, neither suitable for EOG moorings though

 

High Lea, Marsden, Huddersfield
https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property/104547734

 

and

 

Old Bank, Slaithwaite, Huddersfield
https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property/90849136

 

personally i don’t think either are worth that sort of cash, but seems folk are chancing their arm at big prices recently.

next door to us sold for £95k in 2016, just gone up last week for £265!

Weybridge shed on stilts.

Yep - been on the market for a couple of years. I thought it was 1.5M originally on the floodplain. A much better proposition is this one:-

Hmmm.

At first sight, delightful and very affordable. But then we read that there's no road access, that the fireplaces don't work, and that the mysteriously large back terrace was in conjunction with a café business (how, if no one can get there by road?) So, I think we'll stay where we are for the time being, thanks.

   That lock looks suspiciously wide, too.

It should do, it's the last canal one before the Soar.

Yes, just a reference to the fact that the locks in our normal cruising area are all narrow jobbies. It's probably 15 years since we went through a broad one.

Well they turned over £50k per annum opening 4 days per week in the summer months only. So there must be a lot of passing trade from walkers and boaters.

It is(or was) a very well known and loved old fashioned style tea room and ice cream parlour well worth a visit.

'ow much? Beffnal Green must have gone posh.

And mysteriously transitioned from E2 to E3.

 

In the early 1980s, I was acquiring terraced houses in that area for £500 or therabouts; admittedly for slum clearance.
