An urban explorer claims to have found animal bones hanging from the ceiling of a building on farmer Tony Martin's abandoned farm, close to the home where he infamously shot dead a burglar.
Martin, 74, gained notoriety two decades ago when he was jailed for life after shooting 16-year-old Fred Barras at his secluded Norfolk farmhouse in 1999.
He was sentenced to life but the conviction was reduced to manslaughter on grounds of diminished responsibility after the public rallied behind him.
His former mansions and farm outbuildings in Emneth Hungate appear to have remained empty for many years with him now living at a different secret address.

Martin, who slept with a loaded shotgun under his bed after a string of burglaries, previously said he feared further break-in if he returned to the house.
He was found guilty of murder for killing Barras and wounding accomplice Brendon Fearon, with the jury rejecting his claims of self-defence.
Martin, who lived alone at the time of the infamous burglary, and was freed in 2003 and lives once again in Norfolk - this time with friends.
But now, a YouTube videographer known as Abandoned World Explorer UK has filmed what he believes to be the eerie house in June while on holiday with friends.
The explorer looked at the house on the land, two decades after the infamous incident involving Martin
The urban explorer said the scenes were like 'something out of Texas Chainsaw Massacre'

The explorer said he was also interested in classic MK1 Range Rover in the garage of the building
Walking around the abandoned house, covered in overgrown plants and grass, he stumbled across the bathroom and found piles of unidentified bones lying around.
Continuing upstairs, he found a room which had animal bones hanging from pieces of string on the ceiling with a pile of bones to add to the string lying on the floor.
The explorer, who has had more than 50,000 views, said: 'We spotted the house whilst on holiday and decided to explore it without realising whose house it was.
'The bones around the place made the house seem like it was something out of Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

The explorer films 'abandoned places all the time' - and realised 'this one seemed a little odd'
Martin now lives with friends in Norfolk, away from the property visited by the explorer
'They were hung up like decorations and looking like a spider web. I don't think I will be going back, I felt so intimidated and scared whist we were there.
'To me the most interesting thing I saw was the classic MK1 Range Rover in the garage and the hanging bones. I film abandoned places all the time and realised this one seemed a little odd.'
There is no suggestion that Martin was responsible for the animal bones and how they were found.
Last month, Martin said he has not ventured inside since the shooting as he prefers to live with his friends because he fears he will react violently if burgled again.

But Martin also revealed how he found a ladder had been moved from a tree to up against his house and said it was 'evidence' burglars had tried to break in.
He said: 'I put a ladder out the other day. I put it up a tree. When I came back later on, they'd put it up against the house. They'd tried to get in the house.'
He revealed the alleged break-in attempt before a Channel 4 dramatisation of the case called The Interrogation, based on transcripts of police interviews with him.
Martin told the programme, shown last month: 'I don't want to get locked up. If I'm in the house and somebody comes in the house, I'm going to look after myself.'
Asked if he was troubled by the death of Barras, he admitted that he didn't give his victim a second thought because 'what goes around, comes around'.
He added: 'When I was his age I lived with my grandparents - I didn't go breaking into bloody houses 16 miles down the road.'
Martin also said: 'I've had so much bumph around the years, so much paperwork.
'I try to be compliant and amenable but it doesn't really amount to anything. It's all just bumph, stacks and lorry loads of paper.'
He first returned to his home in 2003 after being taken there by a newspaper one week after he was freed from prison after serving two-thirds of a five year sentence.
Tony Martin shooting: 1999 case that sparked huge national debate over protecting your own home
Tony Martin was jailed for life for murder at Norwich Crown Court in April 2000
Tony Martin killed Fred Barras, 16, and wounded accomplice Brendon Fearon, 29, with his unlicensed shotgun after he found them late at night inside his home in August 1999.
He was jailed for life for murder at Norwich Crown Court in April 2000, but later had his sentence reduced to five years for manslaughter.
He appealed against his conviction, claiming that his account was not properly put forward at his trial. It was also revealed that he had Asperger's Syndrome.
Fearon, who admitted conspiring to burgle Bleak House, accompanied by Fred Barras, was jailed for three years at Norwich Crown Court in 2000 and was released in August the following year.
Mr Martin's case provoked a national debate about the measures homeowners can take to defend their property.
The farmer, who is known for his eccentric behaviour, was finally released in 2003, but never returned to live in his derelict detached home on his 300 acres of land at Bleak House Farm.
Instead he is thought to have spent the last 12 years sleeping in his car and at the homes of friends.
Mr Martin has often spoken about how householders should have the right to protect themselves.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
