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

“Mark Littler provides a role that has become scarce in a polarised market: the ‘one stop shop’ for an estate’s executor or solicitor.”

The History of Sandbach

The town of Sandbach, in Old English meaning ‘The Sandy Valley of a Stream’, has changed names over the years, notably being referred to in 1086 as Sanbec, and in 1260 as Sondbache.

The long and rich history of Sandbach can be dated back to AD 43, when the town was frequently raided by the Danish and the Welsh. It’s known that the town was located on a Roman road, which was constructed between Middlewich and Chesterton. There are further references to the history of Sandbach in 653, when the town celebrated the wedding of Alchfleda and Peada, and in the 9th century, when it is thought that the town may have been the victim of Viking raids.

In 1086, the town was referenced in the Doomsday Book, which viewed Sandbach as large enough to require a church; this was later constructed in around 1200. In the 13th century, a large amount of the land in Sandbach was under the ownership of Richard de Sandbach, then the High Sheriff of Cheshire.

By 1579, Sandbach had established itself as a market town, with two fairs a year and a market held on Thursdays. Over the next 60 years, the town developed its infrastructure, with the notable construction of The George Hotel and The Black Bear public house.

In 1651, during the summer fair, an estimated 1000 Scottish cavalry men retreated through Sandbach and were met with resistance during the night; people of the town are recorded to have killed around 10 of the cavalry men and taken a further 100 as prisoners.

Sandbach continued to grow over the subsequent years; the Sandbach school was established in 1677, a police station was constructed in 1760, and the Wheelock Canal was built in 1775. During this time, Sandbach was well-known to produce fine ale.

Notably, after the national campaign to save warships, the civil community of the town adopted the HMS Vimiera in 1941. In 2013, the town of Sandbach had a recorded population of 18,023 people, with about 7,416 residential properties.
