Attached is a poster advertising the sale of the properties and handwritten 'Conditions of sale'. The poster describes the sale as follows:
Valuable freehold estate of great depth nearly opposite Magdalen College to be sold by auctin by J. Wentworth at the Pickerel Inn, Bridge Street, on Thursday March the 28th 1839 at 7 o'clock in the evening, the following extensive freehold estate adjoining Mr Smith's wheelwright's premises; comprising a brick, timber and tiled dwelling house.
Next Mr Francis's Baker etc with front shop, and numerous rooms over and behind;
another tenement with four rooms and back kitchen adjoining, garden ranges of brick, timber, and tiled stales, lofts, and workshop; the whole Freehold, and extending in depth about 130 feet.
The above valuable property is well situated for almost any trade; and the great depth, together with a right of way down Mr Smith's yard, renders it extremely valuable; and it is presumed that any intelligent builder or other speculator, may turn this property to a good and lucrative account - Land tax 9s
