  • Britain's Tallest Folly up for Sale After Financial Failure of Building
    Date: 20 May 2016 Eddisons Britain’s tallest folly up for sale after financial failure of building preservation trust Three historic listed British properties owned by the Vivat Trust, which went into liquidation in August 2015, including a Gothic tower, are to be sold. Property consultancy Eddisons is marketing the properties, some of which have been fully restored, creating modern living accommodation. They include the UK’s tallest folly, the 53m, Grade I listed Hadlow Tower near Tonbridge in Kent; as well as a 15th century timber framed gatehouse in North Yorkshire and a 14th century manor house near Hereford. The Vivat Trust, a registered charity and a national building preservation trust, was dedicated to rescuing neglected and dilapidated historic buildings throughout the UK and providing them with a viable new use, as holiday properties. The trust’s directors called in insolvency firm Begbies Traynor last summer however, when the charity was hit by financial difficulties. Now the properties owned by the trust have been put up for sale and Eddisons is inviting offers for the unique buildings, which have not been given a guide price. Abdul Jambo, associate director at Eddisons, explained: “The properties are of such a unique and historic nature that we have rarely, if ever, seen anything comparable come to the open market. “Because of this their values are likely to differ wildly depending on the potential buyers, whether they are a charity or a private enterprise. As such we will be leaving this to the market to decide and are looking to receive offers from anyone interested in owning an incredibly special piece of British history.” Appeal PR Ltd Tel: 01423 569 999 www.appealpr.com Further information on all the Vivat Trust properties is available at www.eddisons.com/property The historic properties up for sale are: Hadlow Tower, Tonbridge, Kent Hadlow Tower, built by Kent industrialist Walter Barton May, is a fully restored rare Grade I listed early 19th century Gothic tower which originally formed part of Hadlow Castle.

If you didn’t I commend it to you, as a rather more realistic insight into ministry than the ‘Vicar of Dibley’. Although, having said that, in my very first week as a curate I did have to help someone in Wittersham catch an escaped goose, which felt rather Dibleyish. Anyway, in Rev a local homeless man always called the eponymous hero ‘Vicarage’, as in ‘Good morning, Vicarage.’ Sometimes, when salesmen call me at home, they open the conversation by asking ‘Is that the Vicarage?’ and, if I am feeling naughty, I will say, ‘No, this is the Vicar, but I can ask the house to come to the phone if you like.’ That normally confuses them. That is all a slightly long-winded way of saying that, despite the title of this article, this is not a letter from the Vicarage, as it was written neither by my house, nor in my house.

At the start of the year, especially in January and February, time seems to drag and it feels like an uphill slog to get the year properly started. But at this time of year it often feels to me that we are sucked towards Christmas like asteroids rushing towards a giant planet. Although I write this still in August (just) and the apples are still on the trees (just) I know that when September gets underway that the next few months are going to pass in a blur and, the next thing you know, we shall be singing Carols in the Square! Of course, that perception of time passing either quickly or slowly is largely to do with busyness, change and routine. In the depths of post- Christmas winter Church-life can be quieter than usual (depending upon when Easter falls of course), the children are well into their school routines and not a great deal of excitement is happening.
