Two hundred and fifty pounds does not go far these days. In Saltash, it is the guide price for a patch of land.

Highfield Park play area, at Latchbrook, is going under the hammer with a freehold guide of £250 plus. Cornwall Council has instructed the sale of the parcel of land.

What is being sold

The plot measures about 0.016 hectares (0.04 acres). It is listed as Lot 13 in the November online auction run by Clive Emson Auctioneers.
