Paradise Lost?

Photographer, Josephine Pugh, took photos of this derelict manor house in Berkshire, which was abandoned 26 years ago after its last inhabitant died at the age of 96.






The house was built in 1848 on the site of an earlier manor that, according to records, was rented from 1632 to 1638 by John Milton, the author of Paradise Lost.
