Sad to see obit
I moved to West Sussex in 1973 and it was always a great highlight to attend the auction rooms in Western Road.
Peter Cheney was a very charismatic and interesting man and it was a morning’s entertainment, in itself, to attend.

Not only was the auction room a great success; it is probably one of the few in the country, if the not the only, that didn’t actually apply a buyer’s premium.
Mr Cheney was an amazing auctioneer. Both Peter and Susan, his wife, worked very hard for local charities, including the RNLI and St John Ambulance, and they have made a valuable contribution towards Littlehampton.
