I live in a house with parts built in it from 1100. The down stairs used to be a stopping off point for knights on their way to the crusades. If people haven't died in this place i would be really surprised.

My much more recent building from 1860 has certainly had a number of people die in it. It's part of the natural history of any habitat imo.

That is so so so coooooool. My place is a century old so its history is as exciting as beige bath towels.

1100!! Wow. I'm in a house built like a hundred years ago and I felt like that was old.
