The land was sold to a local farmer. The auction, held at The Victoria Institute in Culgaith attracted a number of bidders and, in the final throes of the auction, competition for the farmland certainly heated up.

Thomas Armstrong, Selling Agent of H&H Land and Property commented on the impressive price reached at last night’s auction.
