INTIMATELY showcasing personal artefacts from a family's life, this abandoned bungalow has been left to rot for almost a decade. These haunting photographs of the abandoned Buckinghamshire home were taken by a photographer known as Urbex-SW, a keen illustrator of derelict and abandoned buildings. ‘It was very emotional exploring the house in the woods,’ explains Urbex-SW, of South Wales. ‘I had heard that the owner's son had died at the age of six due to leukaemia.
