 I think they're situated at ground level on my house - purely and simply to let the ants inside!!

My house was built in 2000 and we have them underneath the windows upstairs and also dotted over each wall.

I don't like having them as I'm sure that's how spiders get in and as you know, in Australia, we take our spiders for walks on leads!  :P :P :P ;D ;D ;D ;D

My great Aunt & Uncle used to tell me about the huge Huntsman spiders galloping around their house in Canberra.  They said they tolerated them because they killed the smaller more dangerous spiders.  I googled them, scary looking creatures  :o

I don't think it is, but do you feel we're getting closer?  ;D

Having Internet issues again. About to post close ups, when I get connection.    I think a convalescent home or private hospital is getting close to the mark.  I know you were joking but reflected in the top floor windows are large trees.    The house is covered in bird poop which I think again suggests coastal area.  There are several chimneys which also makes me think the house may be L Shaped or bigger than we think.

I'm up and running again, but goodness knows for how long!  ::)


Have a look at the attached.  The position of what looks to be two chimneys on the far RHS, or is it some sort of connecting wall, that is attached to a chimney which appears to be attached to the small dwelling with the skylight windows.

The part with the skylight windows (behind the green house) could be attached or separate to the large dwelling behind, however as the roof tiles match, I'm assuming it's attached.

There appears to be little room between the greenhouse and what could be a small extension and the larger dwelling at the back.

There also appears to be a wall or fence which to me suggests this is all one property (not shown in this photo).

I don't know, but I think a hospital or convalesce home could be right on the money with may be staff accommodation at the back, hospital laundry or incinerator, they grow their own veggies for therapy, and somebody help me cos I'm running out of straws to grasp!!  ;D ;D ;D

From the number of chimneys, it looks to me that perhaps the main building is quite large and goes back further on the left hand side.

I think both Yorkslass and dgibbins are getting close, so whatever search parameters you are using, keeping going!  ;D ;D
