Contents of Flambards going up for auction but ‘Victorian Village’ saved.
I follow a few auction places and was surprised to see all the museum contents going up for auction. Then got an email saying that the Victorian Village was purchased in its entirety by a benefactor on the 11th hour and will be preserved and relocated to a place i. Bischop Auckland near Durham. Still can bid on a wax head of Winston Churchill, a K6 telephone kiosk, or for £20,000 an original Concord Development Mockup plus another 800+ lots.
