He came out with his dog just as I was walking back out down the drive, he didn't know I had been inside. I told I'm I had just been having a wander around. He was real cool and said he had no problem with it.
I had a good chat with him, he told me he just rents the flat and the owner lives in the converted stable block around the back. The same family has owned it for years and there plan is to eventually convert the lot. He did say the owner might take a different view of me wandering around but as long as I stayed around the front I would be OK as he wouldn't see me! Fair play to him.
I was leaving anyway so just headed off.
