Land and property agent opens new premises

A Midlands-based land and property agent is celebrating its 180th year with the opening of a new flagship office.

Sheldon Bosley Knight (SBK) new state-of-the-art premises in Stratford-upon-Avon will house its sales, lettings and directors’ office all under one roof. Customers will also be able to access the nine other departments that make up the business including rural, planning and the newly re-launched auctions department.

When the business began in 1843, it was as a land agency and auction house. Since then, it has evolved into a multi-disciplined local property service with 11 different departments. In 2022, SBK re-launched the auction arm of the company and is hosting its next sale on Wednesday, May 24 at Stratford Town Hall.

Director, Mike Cleary, said: “As we celebrate our 180th anniversary, it’s great to be back in the heart of Stratford and we couldn’t be happier with our new home. “It’s been an exciting 12 months for the business, with acquisitions, expansion, our sales and lettings teams winning multiple awards.
