      My house is older than recorded time.

      When we were buying it, we had to look up the records, and according to City Hall, it was here before the town was founded in 1788.

    It was an open space between a pub and a railway line. Pub and railway line are still there though.

    There’s a cemetery across the street from my house that has headstones from the 1800’s and my neighbor told us that there were a lot of unmarked graves so I assume there’s some people buried under my house.

    An empty lot. My apartment is only like 30 years old. Any building that old in this state (California) is more than likely a historical thing that’s now a tourist trap. Like the Sarah Winchester house.

    Even in the small town I grew up in that was around since the 1800’s (and was the first town in the state to have a school bus!), the oldest buildings are not the original buildings. Everything’s been torn down and rebuilt over time.
