How to spend it
UK - The Financial Times How To Spend It lists Salvo Fair this month . . . 'Rich pickings for salvage lovers. Tracking down that ideal Victorian fireplace or period feature for the home often means flogging halfway across Britain to a country backwater. Even then there is no guarantee that you will find what you're looking for. But over the weekend of June 26-27, the Salvo Fair, an outdoor exhibition of architectural salvage, garden antiques and reclaimed building materials, takes place in the deer park of Knebworth House in Hertfordshire. . .'
