A House with History

Went for a walk to day around a local lake - one we have done many times. When we passed this house which looks abandoned we saw a plume of smoke coming out of the chimney. So I chased it up on the net and found this sad story about a gentleman being beaten by thieves in 2014. Perhaps he is still living there!
