Stepping inside, however, reveals a far more fragile reality. Large portions of the roof have fallen into the main rooms, leaving piles of debris scattered across the floors. What was once a graceful fireplace has deteriorated into a crumbling cavity, and interior walls have buckled under years of exposure. Even rooms that retain original features, such as tiled bathrooms, show signs of serious structural damage, including warped walls and unsafe flooring. The mansion remained in the Moulthrop family until the 1980s, when it was sold and gradually abandoned. Today, it stands as a powerful reminder of how quickly grand spaces can fade without care, while still holding the quiet dignity of its remarkable past.
