Standen Hall, Clitheroe Standen Hall, Clitheroe, set in the heart of the Lancashire countryside, has belonged to the Aspinall family since the reign of Henry VII and the War of the Roses. It has survived wars, religious upheaval, the Industrial Revolution and huge change in social attitudes to remain the centre of an extensive rural estate.

The house is now to undergo significant restoration and modernisation; as part of this process the family have rationalised their possessions, resulting in a substantial collection of items being offered for sale with Sworders.

For items from this property, please refer to the lots’ provenance.

Lot 1 1931 Rolls-Royce 20/25hp Sedanca de Ville, Coachwork by Park Ward & Co. Registration Number: LGY 665 Chassis Number: GFT 72 Engine Number: S7Q £50,000 - 60,000 (plus 26.4% BP) Launched in 1929, the manageable Rolls-Royce 20/25hp model quickly drew praise from the contemporary press, Autocar noting that it had ‘great refinement of power, and a gentleness and quietness in doing its work, which makes results deceptive’. This example, with highly desirable Sedanca de Ville coachwork by Park Ward, was commissioned by Sir Stratti Ralli, of Upper Brook Street W1 for his wife, Lady Ralli. With the chassis tested by the factory in early November 1931, the handsome coachwork was completed by Park Ward and the Rolls-Royce was registered on New Year’s Eve, 1931.

Sedanca de Ville coachwork, with its ‘open or closed’ driver compartment, is regarded as one of the most desirable styles of bodywork in today’s market and in period it was extremely costly.

An extremely rare car, it is one of just twelve cars built by Park Ward in the Sedanca style and, apparently, the only example built without a boot to upset the line of the car’s ‘D’ back, whilst still carrying a spare wheel and luggage grid.

1931 ROLLS ROYCE 1

Finished to a very high standard, in blue over black with a black fabric roof covering, the car appears to have been the subject of a quality restoration in the past and much recent substantial maintenance and improvement. The chauffeur compartment is trimmed superbly in black hide and the rear compartment in pale grey leather with interlocking ‘RR’ logos on the door trims and a complementing light grey wool carpet. The walnut door cappings feature light wood inlay and are in excellent order, and vanity mirrors are placed for the convenience of passengers. The driver and passengers are separated by a wind-up glass division. The roof section over the chauffeur operates with a simple, but very effective, mechanism and stows neatly into the fixed roof section. Twin side-mounted spare wheels are now carried and the original rear-mounted luggage rack is retained. Quality Lucas Bi-Flex headlights feature.

With just over £17,000 spent on the car in 2016 with the highly-regarded specialist, Jonathan Wood, Clockhouse Workshop, Little Sampford, Essex, paperwork with the car includes the current V5C Registration Document, an old buff RF60 Registration Book, copies of the RollsRoyce build cards and a good quantity of other bills and correspondence. The car is taxed to 1 July 2017 and is, of course, MoT-exempt.

It is worth noting that the car also features in ‘Those Elegant Rolls-Royce’ by Lawrence Dalton.

Lot 96 An important World War Two Arnhem Military Cross group of seven, awarded to Captain Francis Kinglake Hoyer-Millar, B Company, Second Parachute Battalion, Parachute Regiment, comprising: The Military Cross, inscribed 1945, The 1939-1945 Star, The Africa Star, The Italy Star, The France and Germany Star, The Defence Medal, The War Medal, together with a George VI Territorial Medal, awarded to 2929348 SJT D J BRUCE, Liverpool Scottish (Territorial), together with a caricature of Hoyer-Millar, in a kilt and firing a Tommy gun from the hip, 56 x 76cm, and a series of five woodblock prints, signed ‘L Engstler’, in a paper envelope, titled ‘ZOM LAGER 305’, and inscribed ‘Herrn Major Hoyer-Millar zur Erinnerung an seine TA-zeit im P/W-Camp 305, und als Zeichen der Dankbarkeit von den Demkratischen Arbeitsgemeinschaften. Middle East (Egypt) POW-CAMP 305 27 Juli 1946 Im Aufrage Padberg Politischer Campsprecher’.

During this time, Hoyer-Millar was in charge of the camp, based at Fayid in Eygpt (13) £2,000 - 4,000 (plus 26.4% BP) Captain Hoyer-Millar was second-in-command of B Company, and was seen as one of the old hands. He had fought in North Africa and Italy, and had been the battalion’s Intelligence Officer.

He was awarded the Military Cross for his deeds at Arnhem Bridge. His citation in the London Gazette on 18 September 1945 reads: ‘Captain Hoyer-Millar with two sections of B Company was ordered to hold a vital position astride the north end of the bridge at Arnhem, soon after dark on D+1. As he moved into the position he was met by entirely unexpected automatic fire from a much stronger enemy force who had infiltrated under cover of dark. Without the slightest hesitation Captain Hoyer-Millar went straight into the attack and by the speed and ferocity of his assault killed ten and drove off the remainder. Later in the night he drove off a strong enemy counter attack from the south.

On the morning of the fourth day Captain Hoyer-Millar took over command of B Company, when the Company Commander was wounded, at a very critical stage of the battle when his Company was being attacked and half his position had been set on fire. He displayed great courage, continuously exposing himself to enemy fire, and so organised his defences that the enemy attack was repulsed. Later the whole of his position was set on fire but he continued to hold the area until ordered to withdraw. He then successfully evacuated the remnants of his company, himself remaining to the last.

The whole of this time he was exposed to very heavy fire. Throughout the four days fighting Captain Hoyer-Millar had displayed the highest qualities of courage and devotion to duty, never sparing himself and showing complete contempt for danger.’

Operation Market Garden, 17-25 September 1944 The 1st Allied Airborne Corps, which included the American 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions, was tasked to secure the main canal and river crossings between Eindhoven and Arnhem. The aim was to provide an ‘airborne carpet’ along which the ground forces spearheaded by 30 Corps would break into the Ruhr and end the war.

The 1st British Airborne Division, which included the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 10th, 11th and 156th battalions of the Parachute Regiment under the command of Major General R E Urquhart was dropped near Arnhem to seize the road bridge over the Neder Rijn.

Due to insufficient aircraft to fly the division complete, the Air-Landing Brigade had to be used to protect the drop zones and landing zones for the second lift, leaving only the three battalions of the 1st Parachute Brigade to secure the bridge.

Despite the initial surprise, the lightly equipped parachutists were soon encountering unexpectedly heavy German resistance, because elements of the II SS Panzer Corps happened to be refitting in and around the Arnhem area. Only the 2nd Parachute Battalion commanded by Lt Col J D Frost and elements of the Royal Engineers squadron and Recce Company reached the bridge and secured the northern end. They were soon cut off.

Though under constant attack by armour and infantry, the Arnhem bridge was held for three days and four nights. The division’s task had been to hold for 48 hours until relieved by ground forces.

Meanwhile, the rest of the division, depleted by their attempts to fight through to reinforce at the bridge, were compressed into a small perimeter across the river at Oosterbeek. They held on against overwhelming odds for nine days until ordered to withdraw across the river during the night of 25/26 September.

Of all the 10,095 ranks that landed, fewer than 3,000 got out across the river. The ground forces failed to link up and the bid to end the war in 1944 failed.

Five Victoria Crosses were won during the battle, two by members of the Parachute Regiment.

Lots 343-348 The following six watercolours by W E Johns show that the creator of the Biggles books was a keen artist as well as a writer. Glorying in titles such as ‘Good Shooting Sir!!’, ‘Tripehounds’ and ‘Close Work!’, the images convey all the speed and daring of the ‘Boy’s Own’ style that Johns took to its apogee with his later Biggles books.

Intriguingly, one picture is dated 1916, a year before he was commissioned into the Royal Flying Corps. If it was indeed painted then, it is likely that the dogfight scene comes from Johns’ imagination rather than first-hand experience.

Shot down himself while on a bombing mission to Mannheim in Germany in 1918, Johns was lucky to escape with his life - his observer and rear-gunner died of his injuries on the same day - and remained a prisoner-of-war until the Armistice.

It was at this time that he started his writing career, publishing more than 160 books, including almost 100 on Biggles, and launching the magazine ‘Popular Flying’ in 1932, just before ‘The Camels are Coming’, which was the first of the Biggles stories to make it into print.

We are delighted to be offering the paintings, not least because Johns was a local man, having been born in Bengeo, later attending the Richard Hale School in Hertford.

108

O’Neil was one of the founder members of the progressive young artists’ group named ‘The Clique’, aiming to revitalise the increasingly traditionalist Royal Academy.

He became a widely successful painter, able to succeed in portraiture, genre scenes and landscapes.

Like many of O’Neil’s contemporaries, Shakespearean subjects were very popular and are still reproduced to this day. Like Shakespeare’s play ‘As You Like It’, after hearing of Rosalind’s affection for Orlando, his father banishes them, and they take refuge in the forest. They disguise themselves, Rosalind as a countryman (Ganymede) and Celia his sister (Aliena). The play eventually unrolls into a happy ending, with Rosalind married to Orlando and Celia to his brother Oliver. This work is comparable to a painting of a similar date by Walter Deverell: ‘The Mock Marriage of Orlando and Rosalind’, 1853.

Lot 501 A Continental carved oak overmantel, early 16th century, Flemish or German, containing ten panels, including three with relief busts, one inscribed ‘Joher’, one of a knight, two with vines, another of a horseman aiming his bow at a dragon, and a crowned monogram, with later additions, panel 124cm wide 102cm high overall 153cm wide £5,000 - 7,000 (plus 26.4% BP) The subjects that inspired the carving on these panels could be from engravings of the time, features relating to the status and activities of the owner, variations on names and initials and a mischievous sense of humour.

One would imagine that the many flame-shaped burn marks on this piece were caused by ill-placed candles.

An alternative explanation is that they were done intentionally with a taper or rushlight to ward off evil spirits.

This was a common practice at a time of superstition and fear of the unknown.

ARTIST’S RESALE RIGHT (ARR) What is Artist’s Resale Right?

Following a European Directive in 2006, the Artist’s Resale Right entitles creators of original works of art to a royalty each time their work is resold, with the involvement of an auction house, for 1,000 Euros or more.

This right covers sales of work by living artists and also the beneficiaries and heirs of artists deceased within the last 70 years of the sale.

How are resale royalties calculated?

The artist’s royalty depends on the hammer price (sale price without any VAT or Buyer’s Premium). The higher the sale price of the artwork, the lower the overall royalty rate.

The royalty is worked out according to a sliding scale from 4% to 0.25%.

Hammer Price

Royalty

From 0 to €50,000

4%

From €50,000.01 to €200,000

3%

From €200,000.01 to €350,000

1%

From €350,000.01 to €500,000

0.5%

Exceeding €500,000

0.25%

What is the qualifying threshold?

An artwork must sell for more than €1,000 to qualify for a royalty. The law defines the price threshold in Euros and, because the exchange rate between the two currencies changes daily, the equivalent in Pounds Sterling must be worked out according to the exchange rate on the date the artwork was sold.

www.sworder.co.uk

What nationality must an artist be to qualify?

The Artist’s Resale Right applies to the sale of artworks in the European Economic Area (EEA). The following countries are in the EEA: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom.

Artists who are nationals of these countries are therefore generally eligible to receive resale royalties. The nationality criteria only applies to the artist and not to the beneficiaries or heirs.

Are all sales of artwork covered?

The Artist’s Resale Right does not apply to all sales of artworks. A royalty is only due if the following conditions are met:  the artwork is a copyright protected work of graphic or plastic art;  it is sold for more than €1000;  it is sold in the secondary market with the involvement of an art market professional (e.g. auction house);  and it is sold in the UK or another country in the European Economic Area (EEA).

This royalty, where applicable, will be charged to the purchaser. It is exempt of VAT.

INFORMATION FOR BUYERS Introduction The following notes are intended to assist bidders and buyers, particularly those that are inexperienced or new to our salerooms. All of our auctions are governed by our Conditions of Business incorporating the Terms of Consignment (primarily applicable to sellers), the Terms of Sale (primarily applicable to bidders and buyers) and any notices that are displayed in our salerooms or announced by the auctioneer at the auction. Our Conditions of Business are available for inspection at our salerooms and the Terms of Sale are printed in the back of our auction catalogues. Our staff will be happy to help you if there is anything in our Conditions of Business that you do not fully understand.

Please make sure that you read our Terms of Sale set out in this catalogue or on our website carefully before bidding in the auction. If your bid is successful, you will be obliged to comply with our Terms of Sale.

Methods of Payment Lots must be paid for before they are collected. For those attending the auction we ask that lots are paid for on the day of the sale. Methods by which we accept payment are detailed on our web site, including online payment upon receipt of your invoice, and these should be paid by 5pm on the Friday following the sale. We accept cash to an upper limit of 15,000 euros equivalent. Usually any cheques will need to be cleared before you can take the goods away.

Payments by credit card are subject to a charge of 2% plus VAT. Collection and storage All lots should be paid for and collected by 5pm on the Friday following the sale. Commission bidders should check the success of their bids and arrange payment and collection within this time. Please note what the Terms of Sale say about collection and storage. Items not removed by 5pm on Friday may be removed at the purchaser’s expense and a storage charge of £1 per day may be charged.

Dispatch We are rarely able to pack and dispatch purchases. A choice of shippers is detailed on our web site.

Agency As auctioneers we usually act on behalf of the seller whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed. If you buy at auction your contract for the goods is with the seller, not with us as auctioneer.

Estimates Estimates are designed to help you gauge what sort of sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular lot. Estimates may change and should not be thought of as the sale price. The lower estimate may represent the reserve price (the minimum price for which a lot may be sold) and will not be below the reserve price. Estimates do not include the buyer’s premium or VAT (where chargeable). Estimates are prepared some time before the auction and may be altered by a saleroom notice or announcement by the auctioneer before the auction of the lot. They are not definitive.

b. if there is a prohibition on importing goods of that character e.g. because the goods contain prohibited materials such as ivory.

Bidding Bidders will be required to register with us before the auction starts. We reserve the right to impose a deadline prior to the auction by which you must register or by which we must receive a commission bid. If you wish to bid on high value lots this deadline may be several days before the auction in order to allow us sufficient time to carry out the necessary checks. Lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form. You will need to provide us with proof of your identity in a form acceptable to us and such other information as we may require. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone or online bidding. Please note that we may refuse to register you if you do not provide us with all the information and documentation that we ask for or at our discretion.

Commission bidding You may leave commission bids with us indicating the maximum amount to be bid against a lot (excluding the buyers’ premium and/or any applicable VAT). We will execute commission bids as cheaply as possible having regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical commission bids we may prefer the first bid received (where this can be reasonably ascertained). We recommend leaving commission bids online via our website, though please contact us about leaving bids by telephone or fax/email. All absentee bids should be received at least 30 minutes before the auction commences; we cannot guarantee to execute commission bids received after this time.

Telephone Bidding If you are unable to come to the auction it may be possible to bid on the telephone for higher value lots. Please note that this service is for lots with an estimate of £500 or more. The number of lines is limited so we would urge serious telephone bidding only and ask that you be prepared to bid over the top estimate. It is advisable to leave a maximum covering bid in case we are not able to contact you by telephone. All lines must be booked and confirmed in writing before the day of the auction and preferably some time in advance. Telephone bidding involves many variables and whilst we take every care to ensure the smooth operation of this service, we cannot be held liable if your bids are missed for any reason.

Online Bidding Any lots purchased via a live online bidding service will be subject to an additional commission charge on the hammer price payable by the bidder, in accordance with the rates specified by the online service. These charges are 3% plus VAT and will be payable to us on top of the Hammer Price and our buyers commission.

IMPORTANT NOTICES

Buyer’s Premium The Terms of Sale oblige you to pay a buyer’s premium at 22% on the hammer price of each lot purchased, except for our Fine Wine and Port auctions when it is 15%. In addition, VAT is charged on these premiums (see below).

Removal of lots ALL lots are to be removed from the premises by 5.00pm at the latest on the Friday following each sale. Sworders retain the right to remove lots remaining after this time into safe storage, for which a charge will be made.

VAT Items in our catalogue may be marked with a dagger † or double dagger ‡, which indicates that VAT is payable by the buyer on the hammer price and the buyer’s premium at either the standard rate (currently 20%) or a reduced rate (currently 5%), depending upon the legal requirements relating to that lot.

Electrical Goods All electrical goods offered in this sale have either been tested and certified safe or unsafe by an appropriately qualified electrician. All electrical goods certified safe mst be re-commissioned by an appropriately qualified electrician and we recommend those certified safe are similarly re-commissioned.

Lots which do not have either of the above symbols have no VAT payable on the hammer price.

This is because such lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme. The VAT included within the premium is not recoverable as input tax.

Inspection of goods by the buyer As we act on behalf of the seller, we are dependent on information provided by the seller about their goods. We may inspect lots and will act reasonably in taking a general view about them.

However, we are normally unable to carry out detailed examinations of lots to check their condition in the way a buyer would do. You will have ample opportunity to inspect the goods.

You must inspect and investigate lots that you might wish to bid for. Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots set out in the Terms of Sale at clause 12.4.

Post 1950 Upholstered Furniture All items of furniture included in this sale are offered for sale as works of art. The items may not comply with the Furniture and Furnishings (Fire) Safety Regulations 1988 and for this reason, they should not be used in a private dwelling.

Furniture made of Brazilian Rosewood (Dalbergia Negra) To comply with CITES Regulations on Post-1947 furniture made of Brazilian Rosewood, all post-war rosewood furniture items have Article 10 certificates.

Condition Reports We may be able to assist buyers unable to view by emailing a condition report, but these are based solely on our own opinion and are for guidance only and no responsibility is accepted for their accuracy. Intending buyers are strongly encouraged to view. Condition reports cannot be prepared on the day of the sale.

If you are purchasing rosewood furniture for commercial purposes and not solely for your own use, CITES regulations require you to obtain your own certificate.

You would need to contact the Animal Health and Veterinary Laboratories Agency (‘AHVLA’) and, as part of the process of obtaining your document, it is a requirement that you have seen sight of the Sworders’ certificate or are aware of its reference number.

Electrical goods These are sold as “antiques” only. If you buy electrical goods for use you must ask a qualified electrician to check them for compliance with safety regulations before you use them.

It is therefore the responsibility of commercial buyers to ensure that they obtain a copy of the appropriate certificate, or the certificate reference number, after purchase from Sworders Fine Art Auctioneers. Items are marked with this sign §.

Export of goods If you intend to export goods you must find out: a. whether an export licence is needed; and

TERMS OF SALE Both the sale of goods at our auctions and your relationship with us are governed by the Terms of Consignment (primarily applicable to sellers) the Terms of Sale (primarily applicable to bidders and buyers) and any notices displayed in the saleroom or announced by us at the auction (collectively, the “Conditions of Business”). The Terms of Consignment and Terms of Sale are available at our saleroom on request.

Please read these Terms of Sale carefully. Please note that if you register to bid and/or bid at auction this signifies that you agree to and will comply with these Terms of Sale.

Please note that these Terms of Sale relate to auctions held at our premises only. We have separate terms for online only auctions.
