Anglesey Probate Valuations
Valuations for Inheritance Tax purposes (often called probate valuations) are an important part of administering an estate.
We provide valuations of works of art, antiques and collectables for inheritance tax purposes in accordance with the Section 160 of the Inheritance Tax Act 1984.
A professional probate valuation does not only help to ensure your peace of mind, but it also serves many other purposes:
- It enables HMRC to calculate the correct amount of inheritance tax payable
- It can identify and value items listed in the will, which is useful for executors
- It can establish the approximate value of assets, which is helpful for equitable division

The History of Anglesey
The history of the north-western Welsh Isle of Anglesey can be dated back to the prehistory period, which is a time that spans from c. 3,300,300 to c. 5,300. On the Isle of Anglesey, a number of monuments of a megalithic nature have been discovered, including 28 dolmens, a form of megalithic tomb.
The island was the target of Roman invasion in AD 60, when the presence of druids (a significant chapter in the history of Anglesey) became a threat to the general Gaius Suetonius Paulinus; during the invasion, the Nemeton, a sacred Celtic space, was destroyed. It would take 18 years for the Romans to fully occupy the island, at which time copper was heavily mined in the area.
After the end of Roman occupation, the island was colonised by Irish pirates, until the Scottish warlord, Cunedda ap Edern, and eventually his son and grandson, banished the Irish in a long-waged battle that ended in 470.
Anglesey’s history of invasion didn’t end with the Romans or Irish pirates. The Vikings, Saxons, Normans, and English attacked the island in the following years, with the English claiming victory in the 13th century. It’s believed that the name ‘Anglesey’, may be in reference to a Viking name, in this instance, it’s possible that the name was ‘Ongl’s ey’.
Anglesey is now counted amongst a list of thirteen Welsh counties considered to be historic, and features many relics from its past occupation, including Henllys Hall. It achieved county status in 1284, after years of being inherited by king’s heirs before it’s conquest.
Today, Anglesey is a district of Gwynedd, and as the largest of the islands in Wales, it has a considerable population of around 69,751 people. The economy on the island is primarily tourism and agriculture based, with tourists drawn to the island’s unique history and heavy association with the druids.
