... just appeared on the TV is the house I put an offer in on in 1980.
It is on the A46 in Avening Village. It is the churchwardens cottage and came complete with a 1 horse stable and a pigsty.
The church graveyard is at the back of the property beyond the garden wall. There were tiny little trout in that stream.
That "bridge" across the stream is a solid slab of limestone.
We didn't buy because it it was a wreck with active "death-watch" beetle in the roof timbers and a host of other issues.
The council kindly told us they would condemn it if we bought it and that they had the current owners ina council care home and it was their only asset.
It was bought by a builder I think.

It has previously appeared on the TV show "Building the dream" (in 2015) and the re-run has just aired.

So they didn't find the dead body in the garden

Been to se the local scuff s n dents man, he says £200 to fix it. That's much less than my 1st £300 excess if I claimed on the In-Sewer-Ants.
So there goes my "beer money" for this month.

Perhaps your sons might treat you to the repair bill.
