With a marquee set up on the lawn, Mr Railton will conduct two sales in one: material from the ‘untouched’ property where Lady Tankerville lived from the early 1930s until her death last autumn together with lots that would have formed the auctioneer’s annual sale at Chillingham Castle, the Tankerville family seat for hundreds of years. For more information contact 01668 215323.
