It was small but quite pleasant explore, one evening during my holiday in Poland, me and three mates from sesyjni mordercy crew - Lu, r2s and   Moc   went to visit this very close to our city location.

The house remained in the Spurrell familly until the last member died in 1952. It has been abandoned ever since.
