Free: Fireplace hearth grate (Hitchin, SG5) - Not sure what the proper name is, but this sits in front of your open fire in the hearth. Was in front of our old brickette open gas fire, but I'm sure would be fine for all fireplace situations. Made of black pained metal, with little gold trophies/urns to each side. Lower section sits flush to the upper part. I've not described this very well, but it will make sense to those with open fires. Collection from Gaping Lane, Hitchin SG5

Free: Large sansevieria houseplant (Hitchin, SG5) Gifted - Large and very congested, this snake plant (a.k.a 'mother-in-law's tongue') desperately needs repotting. Divided up it'll make lots of smaller plants, or could be halved and they'd still both be huge plants. Very easy to care for, highly drought tolerant houseplant, happy in sun or shade. Plant pot included, but not the metal outer pot. Collection from Gaping Lane, Hitchin, SG5
