Auction: Extreme Architecture, Kent. Humberts will auction on Thursday 27th and Friday 28th September 2007 the entire stock of architectural salvage, restoration materials, garden statuary and antique furniture of Extreme Architecture.
 
This year Dennis Buggins of Extreme Architecture sold London's old Baltic Exchange to Estonia for £800,000 (via a free ad on SalvoWEB), and it has now been shipped to Tallinn where it is to be rebuilt. Now he is hoping to sell the rest of his fabulous collection.
 
At the forthcoming auction sale Mr Buggins is seeking some slightly less ambitious reclaimers interested in a other prime British architectural heritage which features among the auction's star lots, namely the dismantled Christopher Wren Lodge from Temple Bar (see photo above), circa 1730, the dismantled Royal Box from Ascot race course designed by Sir Albert Richardson, and the portico from the Lloyds of London building.
