Michael J Bowman has been holding regular auctions at Chudleigh Town Hall since 1986, including auctions for antiques, ceramics, fine art, jewellery, militaria and collectors' items. Newton Abbot and Teignbridge are the main areas we cover, but vendors regularly consign items throughout Devon. Our weekly valuation day in Plymouth helps to cater for our Cornish client base.
