We mentioned a little while ago that Spitbank Fort in the Solent was up for auction, turns out just before the auction was held a buyer came forward and offered £1,000,000, way more than the guide price and quickly accepted by the sellers. It will be interesting to see how the fort will be used in the future. For full details see the BBC article.

Incredible. Over £300,000 on top of the asking price. Love to own it, but my £2.34 was rejected pretty quickly.

We could have pooled together your £2.34 and my £11.00
