AN AUCTION house will be offering members of the public the opportunity to have free valuations of any items connected to angling, shooting, hunting and other traditional country pursuits.

The two dedicated valuation sessions will be held at Addisons’ Estate Agents on King Street in Richmond on Monday, March 3 and on Tuesday, March 4 at Addisons’ auction rooms, Staindrop Road in Barnard Castle, between 1pm and 4pm.

Although there is no obligation attached to the valuations, if the owners wish, they will have the opportunity to include the items in Addisons’ forthcoming annual country sports sale to be held on Thursday, April 3.

Valuations on the day are by appointment only and can be made by calling Addisons’ Auctioneers and Valuers on 01833-690545 or emailing: marella@addisons-auctioneers.co.uk.
