A breakers’ yard is located in the grounds of Blackborough House.

For instance, there is a 1955 Morris Minor 2 door that has been stored at the yard since 2001 that needs restoring although it had a new gearbox and engine fitted in the 1980s.

If you are interested in lorries, there is a vintage circa 1930 Dennis Lorry that needs to be fully restored. Alternatively, or as well as, you may be attracted to a Morris A60 pick-up built in 1967.

What about a Standard Fordson Tractor that dates back to the 1940s that needs some restoration work carrying out to it.

If you are interested in antique motorbikes then there is plenty of choice. For instance, a 1958 Panther Motorcycle fitted with a 197cc engine. How about a 1951 AJ5 350 that has been owned by one family from when it was new. There is a Royal Enfield Girder fork Type motorbike available to buy.

You may be interested in a 1938 Austin B16 7 saloon car that has an 885 cc engine and a blue and black interior. The estimated sale price is £5,000 to £6,000.

There is a Hillman Minx Series 1 dating back to 1956 with a 1390cc engine. It has been partly restored.

There is an Austin 7 Nippy in black and cream dating back to 1935 that could be sold for £8,000 to £10,000.
