‘Post-apocalyptic’ car graveyard discovered revealing eerie clues about owner’s child-like life of comic books & games
A "POST-apocalyptic" car graveyard has been discovered - revealing eerie clues about its owner's child-like life of comic books and games.
Vintage motors including Ford Vans, Morris Minors, Jaguars, Land Rovers and even boats and caravans have been abandoned at the Yorkshire site.
Snaps show a treasure trove of up to 70 classic cars and piles of comic books and arcade games.
Photographer Daniel Sims, 34, thinks the owner may have bought the cars in order to fix and sell them.
He said: "I know very little about the previous owner apart from the fact he was a massive collector and had many cars - which must have taken decades to acquire.
"This place reminded me of a hoarder who would collect with the potential to sell things in the future.

"The whole site was wide open and also open to the elements so it was just a matter of climbing over broken fences.
"The main house had been left ruined for a long time but all over the property were masses of cars.
Daniel added: "We found hoards of vintage games and consoles and vast amounts of comics and very old vintage antiques.
"Here we also found an old TV graveyard with a mass of about 50 TVs planted into the ground.

"The outside was quite overgrown at the time we went here but was worth going and fighting through the land to see everything left.
“The house was pretty much gone - I'm assuming there was a fire or maybe the previous owner lived in one of the caravans on the land."
