Public Statement

On 18th October 2010, we were subjected to a serious burglary at St Andrew's Hall where cash and valuables relating to our business were stolen. 
We decided to shut down all auction-related activity until now in order to give us time to assess the full impact of what has happened upon our business and upon our customers.
That process is almost complete and we will issue a Public Statement on Thursday, 4th November to provide information on our strategy to make good the losses incurred by our customers.

In the meantime we will continue to trade normally which means that November 2010 looks like this:
Wednesday, 3rd - The Cloisters Fair 8am-3pm
Wednesday, 10th - The Cloisters Fair 8am-3pm
Thursday, 11th - General Auction incl Antiques and Collectables 2pm (midday viewing)
Saturday, 13th - The Cloisters Fair 8am-4pm
Wednesday, 17th - The Cloisters Fair 8am-3pm
Wednesday, 24th - The Cloisters Fair 8am-3pm
Thursday, 25th - General Auction incl Antiques & Collectables 2pm (midday viewing)
Saturday, 27th - The Cloisters Fair (8am-4pm)

The support we have received over the past two weeks has been phenomenal and I would personally like to thank everyone for that.  Now I appeal for your continued support over the nexet few months as we attempt to climb back from what has been a catastrophic loss for our small business.
