Signs have appeared recently suggesting that Trent U has purchased the house and its probably slated for demolition. It appears to be in perfect condition. I've driven past it literally hundreds of times without noticing its even there. Its a little back from to road on a curve so I guess I tend to watch the road instead of the scenery there. Anyways, pics are from a brief visit in late summer 2006. Don't know if its in the DB yet but I hope to add it if I can get full membership status ;) click to view click to view click to view click to view click to view click to view click to view Nothing left inside! click to view click to view Back of the house click to view click to view View from the road click to view See...its easy to miss... click to view More Ptbo sites to come.

I figured it would be used once school started up again.I noticed that there are a couple of lots around it that once had houses on them. Thanks for the pics.

Very sad, lots of history plowed over Here is an article from the Trent newspaper "the Arthur" The Commoner news story Calvin: It's a magical world, Hobbes, Ol' Buddy . . . let's go exploring! arc_explorer  Gender: Male  |  Re: Abandoned Yellow House, Peterborough <Reply # 5 on 1/7/2007 3:31 AM >   There's also three other houses on the east bank near Gzowski that have recently been acquired by Trent and have new danger signs out front. One is filled with old desks, chairs and school crap. The other two are also in pristine condition. I haven't had time to check them out yet. nivok  Location: Peterborough Gender: Male  |  |  Re: Abandoned Yellow House, Peterborough <Reply # 6 on 3/20/2007 3:22 AM >   Checked this site out today, nice house/yard. Looks like someone's been trying to light a beam in the garage on fire without much success. (thankfully, obviously.) It was a nice site to explore being a noob, it's almost directly kitty-corner to the entrance for Trent off water/cnty rd 29 for those that are interested UE noob--Peterborough/Lindsay area. :) nivok  Location: Peterborough Gender: Male  |  |  Re: Abandoned Yellow House, Peterborough <Reply # 7 on 6/15/2007 10:22 PM >   This house is currently jacked up and seems ready to be moved, check it out now if you're going to.
