Impressive array of farm machinery to go under hammer

A NORTH Shropshire dispersal sale later this month has one of the most impressive ranges of modern farm machinery from one unit ever seen in the county, says Halls auctioneers.

- 

The sale at Hanley Hall, Weirbrook, West Felton, Oswestry, on Friday, February 20, includes a selection of well-maintained John Deere tractors, the four newest having clocked up only 692 hours between them. A John Deere combine has 74.4 drum hours to its name.

Potato cultivation equipment, a grading line, bagging and palleting system and a range of trailers are also included among the 222 lots on offer.

Halls are conducting the auction on behalf of the executors of the estate of the late David Morris, described by the auctioneers as a “perfectionist.”

He bought Hanley Hall, a 400-acre arable farm, in 1987 and invested in machinery and vehicles of the highest standard.
