I have sent you a PM. An envelope should be flashing up top next to "My Stuff"

Last picture - (ignoring the table) shows the beams in the front room. This is where someone was meant to have hung themselves and blood stain on floor etc...

There is so much history in that house. I hope your great Nan will be happy wherever she is going to live next. God bless her.
