Keeper's Cottage Stud

In October 2014, John Lowe shot and killed Christine Lee and her daughter, Lucy Lee. All on the six-acre puppy farm, Keeper's Cottage Stud. After the terrible incident, John Lowe was sentenced to life, and the farm has since been left abandoned.

Lowe had been repeatedly reported to RSPCA for his breeding practices, and was even featured on a BBC documentary 'Inside Out.’ In 2009 he was convicted of illegal dog breeding, fined, and banned from breeding dogs for five years. After shooting Christine Lee in the home in 2014, her daughter Lucy Lee ran from the property, while calling police. She then cuts the telephone call, and returns to the property, before being shot by John Lowe. Lowe also turns the gun to four of the dogs on site, before he is arrested by police. Transcripts of the telephone call and overhead footage of the farm after the incident can be easily found online.

There have been talks of the farm being demolished, and new modern cottages built on the site. But this has been met with some resistance in the local area and has caused these plans to be put on hold. At the moment the farm has been left very open, a lot of the windows have been smashed on the farmhouse and all the outhouses have been left open to the elements. But, it is still in relatively good condition. We both agreed it has quite an eerie feel when walking through.

A shoutout to fellow urban explorer Dappadee69, as he really helped Urbexgirl get the details down for this explore.
