IMPORTANT PROPERTY SALE AT HIGHAM FERRERSMessrs. Pendered and Son held the most important auction sale that has taken place at Higham Ferrers for many years past at the “Green Dragon” on Thursday evening last. The great need of Higham Ferrers has been the acquisition of land for building purposes, and the wish of the public has often been expressed that eligible land might be obtained. Owing to the fact, however, that nearly all the land suitable for building was practically owned by the representatives of Mr. Fitzwilliam, it has not been possible to acquire land in any quantity. About twelve months ago Messrs Burnham, Son, and Lewin, of Wellingborough, (the local solicitors of the Duchy of Lancaster) represented to the Duchy that inasmuch as the lease of the Duchy land would expire at Ladyday 1891, it would be very beneficial to Higham Ferrers and the neighbourhood if the Duchy would offer a portion of their estates for sale in building plots. The matter was favourably entertained and the Chancellor of the Duchy directed a sale to take place as soon as the lease (which had existed over 100 years) expired. This long leasehold term expired on Wednesday evening last, and the advisers of the Duchy having-made all previous arrangements were in a position to proceed to auction on the following evening. A very large and highly-respectable company met the auctioneers, and as will be seen from the subjoined statement, the result of the auction was most gratifying, every lot at Higham Ferrers having been sold. We understand that it is the intention of the Duchy to take immediate steps to open up the lands adjoining the portion sold in building plots, and to this end roads and sewers will be made under the superintendence of Messrs. Talbot Brown and Fisher, architects of Wellingborough.
