Chance to buy a hall with pedigree

It has enjoyed a distinguished history since opening in October 1842 for the Todmorden Oddfellows.

Ten years later a Wesleyan Association Chapel was sited there and at the end of the 19th century, it became the headquarters of the Todmorden Liberal Club.
The building is currently let to three tenants: Boots, Todmorden News Centre and the Platinum Lounge club, generating annual rent of £66,250, a potential return of over 14 per cent, says the auctioneers.
Tony Webber, of Eddisons, said: “This is well-known building which generates a very healthy return. I expect there to be plenty of interest from investors.”
The sale takes place at Leeds United Football Club, Elland Road, Leeds, at 12.30pm.
