Derelict - very

A derelict house in Priesca. Priesca is the largest settlement in a valley which connects Villaviciosa to Colunga. From the number of old buildings on it (3 old churches, for example, in the space of only a dozen or so km), I think it may once have been the major route between those towns, though if so it´s now lost that completely, and the settlements along the valley contain, as well as some very attractive housing, also a lot of dereliction. I went today thinking to make a collection of photos of the 10th century church of San Salvador, but found it closed and in scaffolding, clearly getting a major renovation. Instead, just out of the village, this house, probably once quite substantial.
