Its often said that the English language is all about learning you’re A, B & C’s, whilst minding your P’s & Q’s! Auctioneer Kevin Gilbert has progressed a little further putting various letters together to form some of his favourite words…’going, going, gone!’. The sellers of the former St Christopher’s School in Canterbury are hoping to hear those mortal words for themselves as the substantial building located in New Dover Road, is offered by public auction and goes under the hammer at the latest Clive Emson Auction on 23 July at the Kent County Showground, Detling, Maidstone commencing at 11am.

The extensive accommodation is arranged over 4 floors includes 10 classrooms plus ancillary rooms, plus tarmac front parking, playground to the rear and an assembly hall. The building/site may offer potential for a variety of uses, or perhaps, conversion into flats with potential for further development within the grounds, subject to all the necessary consents being obtainable. It is being offered with a guide price of £675-725,000.
