Stratford-upon-Avon

Two regional auctioneers – Halls of Shrewsbury and Bigwoods of Stratford-upon-Avon – are joining forces to conduct an ‘on-the-premises’ sale of art and antiques owned by the colourful publisher Felix Dennis (1947-2014).

WHILE a number of auctioneers had the snow to contend with, Steven B Bruce faced a double obstacle to their latest sale, now to be held in the new year.

FOUR centuries of contact with the North American continent – exploration, trade, settlement, war and missionary activity – mean that, just occasionally, spectacular Native American art objects are found in the United Kingdom.

TO raise funds for the Stratford-on-Avon Hospice, Jeannette Laight of J&G Vintage Clothes Fairs, and Matt Curtis of Stratford-on-Avon hair stylists Toni & Guy held a vintage fashion show at The One Elm bar and restaurant, Guild Street on Monday September 11 where models Dani Davies and Sam Rannage, right, took to the catwalk and paraded some of the clothes that you won’t find in Top Shop.

ENIGMATIC, elusive, rarely seen, and classified as mad – but that’s our Dadd!

A substantial portion of the antiques stolen from Ramsbury Manor, near Marlborough in Wiltshire, on February 1, have been recovered near Stratford-upon-Avon.
