Yeah it was alright actually. A few spiders but mostly just old wiring. The previous owners had installed a couple of strip lights under there but of course we'd ripped out the old wires from the consumer unit by then so they didn't work. They'd run some audio cables from a cd player in the kitchen speakers around the ground floor and telephone wires so each room had a socket so at some point it was cared for.

You're lucky that your voids were clear enough to crawl through! The rubble in ours was literally touching the floorboards...
We did end up paying someone to fill, sand and Osmo the floor after though, looks & feels much nicer than before so took the edge off losing the original floorboards.
