For many years Thimbleby & Shorland specialised in the sale of livestock, horses and agricultural equipment, as well as land agency.  The company still maintains those connections, being leading international specialists in the sale and valuation of horse-drawn vehicles and related items, hosting the world renowned Reading Carriage Sales.  The annual sale of Shetland ponies is the largest in the country with many of the ponies being exported to Europe.
With the slow demise of many livestock markets in the south of England, the business diversified and now conducts large auctions of Contractors’ Plant and Equipment in Reading and elsewhere on behalf of clients such as Speedy Asset Services, and Hewden Stuart up until their dissolution,   these sales also having an international following.

We hold monthly auctions of antiques; period and modern household effects; collectables; workshop tools & equipment; and motor vehicles. There is an annual sale of ground maintenance equipment, and a growing number of auctions of vintage agricultural & commercial vehicles, motor cars, bygones and memorabilia.

Alongside the busy auction side of the business we have a flourishing land agency department dealing with issues such as subsidy schemes, compulsory purchase and landlord & tenant matters, and the sale & letting of rural property.  Thimbleby & Shorland have acted as agents in the valuation and sales of all types of assets for national and local Liquidators and Receivers for over 30 years and are agents for the Official Receiver in Reading and other local offices.

For professional advice, valuations or information on any of the above, please do not hesitate to contact us here in Reading.
