Special valuation fundraiser

If you have an heirloom or something interesting you’ve picked up at a sale and wonder what it’s worth, then put Saturday, October 12 in your diary. 

St Nicholas Church in Churchstoke has invited Halls Auctioneers to run a special valuation day in order to raise funds for the Grade 2 Listed building.

Starting at 10am, experts James Forster and Joseph Trinder from Halls (pictured) will cast their eyes over artworks, antiques, toys and tableware to estimate their potential value in the auction room.

James, Auctioneer and Picture Specialist, said: “We’re delighted to have been invited to raise funds for St Nicholas Church to help towards their project to install a new heating system, toilets and a new sound and vision system. It’s always interesting to see what people bring along to these events and although we occasionally uncover something really valuable, most of the time owners are intrigued to know more about their possessions.”

The valuation event will be held from 10am-12noon at the church. All items are welcome and a charge of £1 per item will go towards church funds.
