If you are looking to sell or buy antiques Barnes has its very own regular antiques auction held at the Old Sorting Office. A recent sale catalogue offered such treasures as a stuffed stag's head, a set of Minton tiles and an early copy of Mrs Beeton's cook book. It's great fun to see what's on sale and nothing beats the excitement of bidding for a lot at an auction.
