In my quest for car graveyards this was one which was chucked in my lap a couple of years ago now, but given it's distance from my home was a place I'd never been able to actually factor into a day out. I rarely venture into Lincolnshire as it is but during a day spent hunting more car graveyards recently I found myself within touching distance of it so decided to make hay whilst the sun didn't shine and finally cross it off.
I can find out absolutely sod all about the property and it's history, looking at old google map images it was either a car hoarder or someone's business premises as there are dozens of old Fords on site. I believe around a decade ago a fire started accidentally in one of the garages out back which quickly spread and became a huge inferno destroying almost all of the cars, only a few at the very back and very front were unscathed. The property was abandoned afterwards and a few years later the house was also burned down but this was very definitely an arson.
The summer months generally aren't the best months to shoot car graveyards in, they are usually mostly outdoors and as such very overgrown and this was exactly the case with this one, the brambles and undergrowth has swallowed up many of them.
Thanks for looking

This reminds me of the report on here, where the warehouse is full of rusty orange cars. Thats a beaut too.
