Upstairs.

The only rooms up here are the upper part of the old two-up-two-down, plus a small bathroom out the back, above the larger one downstairs.

Great wide passageway the whole length of the back. Not unusual in these old houses, apparently, it was the space for all the kids in those large families. Aunt Kat and Uncle George didn’t have any kids of their own, but no doubt someone before them did.

Feels quiet up here. A nice change from the out-and-out weirdness of that conservatory.

Yeah. I remember this, from when we stayed here as kids. We slept in the passageway, like those kids of olden times.

We had a camp-bed each. Slept like a log, every night.
