The combined upper freehold guide price for all seven lots is £1.135 million.

Bidding for the Clive Emson auction, the last of the year, goes live on Monday, December 11, and ends on Wednesday, December 13.

Richard Payne, senior auction appraiser and auctioneer, said: “We have been entrusted by Eastbourne Borough Council to dispose of these 99 lock-up up-and-over garages which have been deemed surplus to requirements.

“Garage sales always do well at Clive Emson auctions and this multi-lot offering could well boost the local authority’s coffers by well over £1 million.”
