The house, resembling a time capsule, was found by photographer, historian and archivist Rebecca Brownley. Until it was demolished in 2018, it was located in Cookstown, Northern Ireland, and belonged to a family of farmers.

The newspaper with the news about the death of the Titanic, centennial canned food and personal belongings - the old farmhouse preserved the atmosphere of antiquity, writes Bigpicture.

The house was built in 1858 and belonged to a family of farmers, passing from generation to generation. Its last owner was Dressie. He was the youngest of three of the last generation of farmers. In 2015, Dressy moved to a nursing home, where he died in 2017. In the absence of a relative, the cottage was transferred to a neighbor whom the last owner had bequeathed to him.

During her visit to the farm cottage, Rebecca Brownley discovered hundreds of items that could become exhibits of any historical museum in Ireland. It kept old books, family photos, magazines, newspapers, and clippings from even older newspapers; love letters, money and clothing of the Victorian and Edwardian eras; Houseware.

Photographs taken in this time capsule, the photographer published on his website. She visited Dressie's cottage between December 2017 and April 2018, before the building was finally demolished.

The other day, the OXO reported a Brit who built tree house for his two daughters. He began work when the country's schools and kindergartens were quarantined due to coronavirus. Joe Rackley thought this was the best solution for self-isolation and self-isolation.
