At the back of one of my mates house his uncle owns a big plot of land. It's so big that he has (so far) found 4 garages.
His uncle thinks it's been about 30 to 40 years since someone has been in this garage. Inside it is bone dry and there is even a pit.
I've been aloud to have one of them for £50 a year to put my Corsa in whilst playing with it.

Yes. But the ladders are pointless. It's only up to my waist.
I've taken some more pics. It's empty now.

Very nice find mate, id mend some of the holes though, stop people seeing whats inside.
Also who knows, you could maybe make some money off some of that old stuff, antique like.

A bit of an update.
Here is where my Astra sleeps awaiting me to fix it.
Here is the size of the land. Now you can see why they have been found.
