Eerie images taken inside an abandoned home near Edinburgh have shown a property frozen in time since the owners died a week apart from ‘poisoning’ in the ‘60s.
The detached two-bedroom home near the capital still has a table set for two, furniture covered in cobwebs and a vintage living room. Grant Vincent, an urban explorer who documents abandoned buildings, took some snaps around the home.
He said: "It is believed that the couple who owned this farm both died from stomach related illnesses just a week apart.

"The rumour is that it was possibly arsenic poisoning. The land was sold to another farmer and the house was left as is. Cheques and newspapers found inside date back to the 1960s."
Images show a rusted safe, old piano and weathered cooking range. The urban explorer told of what it was like to be in the eerie property with its dark history.
He added: "This has been one of my favourite places to explore so far.
"The mix of decay and contents left behind made it great for taking pictures. You got a real sense of how the people lived.
"There was a certain eeriness to the farmhouse but to be honest I get that from most places I explore. I could have spent hours in there looking at everything and getting photos."
