Sheffield butcher still open for business despite sale of building
F & C Willey, based in Cross Street, Woodhouse, operates from a property sold at auction for £234,000 last week.
The building was marketed by auction house Mark Jenkinson and Son as a 'substantial high yielding investment property' and also contains a licensed house of multiple occupancy, a separate four-person bedsit and additional store areas.

Stephen and Diane Evison, who run the shop, contacted The Star to reassure people ahead of the busy festive period.
"We are still open for business," they said.
"Christmas orders are being taken - please support your local butcher's shop."
