Particulars, Plan and Conditions of Sale The Lyneham Estate 5th October 1905

The Lyneham Estate was put up for sale by auction on Thursday 5th October 1905. Messrs. Walton and Lee from Grosvenor Square London held the auction at Lansdowne Arms Hotel in Calne at 2pm and we have managed to obtain a copy of the particulars, plan and conditions of sales. The document, including a very detailed map, has been reproduced here, as it brings a lot of fascinating facts about the estate and who rented the various lots, their acreage and rent at time of sale. Described as an 'Extremely Valuable Freehold Agricultural and Sporting Property The Lyneham Estate', embraces an area of about 2,016 acres lies in a ring fence and is divided up into nine dairy and pastoral holdings, all holding extremely convenient positions in and around our village and neighbouring Tockenham and Preston.

The Lyneham Estate Plan has been separated into the individual maps associated with each lot, linked by the green circle These pages have been digitally enhanced to make viewing and printing that much clearer. Please be patient, as some of the images are quite large in size and may take a few moments to download.
