mackem 27,516 Posted January 29, 2022 Report Share Posted January 29, 2022 Grim is an understatement, I would have got an industrial cleaning firm and a couple of skips in long before the pics were taken, I bet that wouldn't have featured on "Through the keyhole" with Loyd Grossman's plummy accented "Who lives in a f***ing squat like this?". 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tatsblisters 10,304 Posted January 29, 2022 Report Share Posted January 29, 2022 Its usually down to mental illness some one living in squalor as bad as that though some flat's in Sheffield that smack heads had been squatting in some years ago were on par with this house as the firm i worked for had the task of clearing them out. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers Arry I have seen houses for sale cheaper than that Arry in rundown areas in S.yorks that have now been overtaken by Roma Slovaks forcing residents who have lived in those areas for years to almost give their houses away to escape these horrendous areas. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kids toys sort of lying about,football and scalextric up the the bedroom and a few different beer/cider cans about,who knows what story is behind the state but i hope it has a happy ending rather than the man looses family and looses the fight against life because of it.... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gnasher16 30,469 Posted January 30, 2022 Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 I have no idea what S26 Sheffield is like but in a sought after area the first thing many buyers will be looking to do is flatten it to the ground....dirty skirting boards dont really matter.
