Six salerooms open their doors on the same morning, Monday 14 September 2026, and no two are alike. A book-only arms and armour sale, a Staffordshire marathon that runs from cars to costume jewellery, a garden-plant auction in Norfolk, a Lancashire watch-and-collectables round, a Suffolk Monday staple, and the opening online session of a premium South African sale. Here is what to circle, house by house.
What’s in the Garth Vincent arms & armour sale?
The Garth Vincent Antique Arms & Armour Auctions is a book-only sale — the traditional format where the printed catalogue is the record and every lot sells from it. If you collect antique swords, flintlock pistols, muskets or armour, this is a name that carries weight: Garth Vincent is one of the trade’s most respected dealers in the field.
When and where: Monday 14 September 2026 at 9:00am (BST), online only, run from The Old Manor House, Allington. Because it is book-only, read the catalogue closely and get commission or absentee bids in early. See the full listing on Auction Eagle, more from Garth Vincent Antique Auctions Ltd, or other Nottinghamshire auctioneers.
What’s in the Richard Winterton cars & automobilia sale?
The Antique & Home Sale to include Cars, Bikes & Automobilia from Richard Winterton Auctioneers is the broadest of the day, and it follows a new running order worth knowing before you register:
- From 9:00am — vehicles and tools (lots 1–77), tools and electricals (101–134), then furniture (200–331).
- From 10:30am — jewellery (401–568), then ceramics, glass and household miscellany (751–1003).
Mind the deliberate gaps in the lot numbers between sections. It is a genuine restock sale for dealers, a hunting ground for interior buyers after furniture, and an easy first outing for new bidders. When and where: Monday 14 September 2026 from 9:00am (BST), online and in person at Wood End Lane, Fradley Park, Lichfield, Staffordshire. Browse the catalogue listing, more from Richard Winterton Auctioneers, and other West Midlands houses.
What’s in the Keys Fine Art plants sale?
One for the garden. The Weekly Auction of Plants & Outside Effects at Keys Fine Art Auctioneers suits the season — perennials, shrubs and outdoor lots for putting the borders to bed and planning ahead for spring. One practical rule: all plants must be collected in person on sale day, or by 12.30pm the day after, so bid local.
When and where: Monday 14 September 2026 at 9:30am (BST), online and in person at Palmers Lane, Aylsham. View the listing on Auction Eagle, more from Keys Fine Art Auctioneers, or the wider Norfolk saleroom scene.
What’s in the Bank Hall Auctions Colne sale?
Bank Hall’s Live Weekly Auction — now with in-room bidding at Colne gathers collectables, antiques, jewellery, wristwatches and fabrics under one roof. Watch buyers should keep a standing eye on this weekly rotation: good pieces surface regularly at sensible estimates, and the fast pace rewards a careful catalogue read.
When and where: Monday 14 September 2026 at 9:30am (BST), online only, run from Unit 6, Kings Mill, Queen St, Harle Syke, Burnley, Lancashire. Browse the Auction Eagle listing, more from Bank Hall Auctions, and other Lancashire auctioneers.
What’s in the Clarke and Simpson Monday Sale?
In Suffolk, The Monday Sale — Saleroom 2 from Clarke and Simpson Auctions is the dependable weekly fixture of a good country house: general antiques and household lots that reward regular attendance. One deadline to note — condition reports close at 11am on the Saturday before the sale, so request yours in good time rather than on the morning.
When and where: Monday 14 September 2026 at 10:00am (BST), online and in person at Campsea Ashe, near Wickham Market. See the listing here, more from Clarke and Simpson Auctions, and the rest of the Suffolk calendar.
