10 vintage solid brass reproduction rope twist door knobs (Knighton LE2)
Gifted
These are older solid metal reproductions of Georgian/Victorian doorknobs. Different sizes and slightly different styles but most between 3 and 4cm across. I can always recycle them, since they are metal, but re-use would be better.

Morrison petrol-powered chainsawaw. (Knighton LE2)
Gifted
I bought it from an auction a few years ago, when it was still in its original box. But it's a real pig to start and even when started, ran unevenly. Would sometimes start at an engine speed that meant that the chainsaw was running which made it feel dangerous to use (at least for me)..

Draper petrol-powered hedge-trimmer (Knighton LE2)
Gifted
I was given this a couple of years ago and it was almost brand new then. But it doesn't really work. If I were to guess, I'd think that it's a problem with the centrifugal clutch. But I might be entirely wrong.

Probably 200 or so golf balls (Knighton LE2)
Expired
A mop bucket full of golf balls (although I will be keeping the bucket). I'd guess a couple of hundred balls. Collected from a couple of years ago when I used to consistently hit my shots into trees etc. and I used to forage a bit since there was always the risk of me going on to lose balls. Now I don't visit those areas so much, I don't really have any need for them. Mixed quality.

16 low energy fluorescent light bulbs. (Knighton LE2)

Mostly 60W or 40W equivalent. Almost all bayonet fittings. We only use LED now so have no use for these anymore.

Nespresso machine (Knighton LE2)

Won't turn on. Maybe someone knows how to fix it or can use it for parts.

Chaise-longue (Knighton LE2)
Gifted
Vintage chaise-longue. Gifted as an upholstery project (it desperately needs doing) but we have too many other projects so re-gifting it to anyone else who fancies a go. 160 cm long and 75cm high. Very, very heavy. I can probably drop it off locally but may need help loading it.

Set of Donnay Evolution 2 golf glubs (Knighton LE2)
Expired
Set from driver to putter (although the 8 iron is from elsewhere). Graphite shafts. Decent condition and I was using them up until a couple of years ago. Need a clean but would make a good first set.

Gifted
5 drivers of different types, 4 long irons of different types and 2 putters. Decent condition. Not enough to take out on the course but OK for practice down at the range.

Skytec 170.728 DJ speakers (Knighton LE2)
Gifted
A pair of Skytec 170.728 DJ speakers. 150 Watt. I assume that they are working but I don't have the leads necessary to test them.

Kenwood FDM30 food processor (Knighton LE2)
Gifted
Kenwood food processor. Used to belong to my daughter, left with us and now she's moved to Australia, no longer needed. Needs a good clean. The main lid for the processor has had the clip broken off that enables the processor to work (so it needs a new lid or a bodge). The motor does work (I've tested it by using a cocktail stick to override the safety that the lid would normally sort). The Juicer is missing whatever part is needed to connect it to the base unit and the piece that goes in the middle of the lid. But lots of good parts for someone who knows how to bring it all together.

Heavy duty power tool case with organiser (Knighton LE2)
Gifted
Sturdy carry case for power tools but used by my nephew to carry around his Warhammer army and useful for many other things. Foam rubber inside is probably for the Warhammer stuff but fits nicely. A little dusty but otherwise in great condition.

14 foot trampoline (Knighton LE2)
Gifted
14 foot trampoline. Probably 25 years old - we bought it secondhand 15 years ago. In regular use up until a couple of years ago - now it gets maybe a couple of days use a year, so it's time to go. Works fine. Quite a few of the springs are a bit rusty and there are, as far as I can see, 3 holes in the sprung part (one of which was there when we got it). There is duct tape around the legs simply because when a group of adults go wild on it and bounce in unison, the legs can otherwise get detached. The spring cover was originally full of foam but that's degraded away through being out in the open all year. There used to be a hook with a handle for attaching the springs - that's done a bunk - but they can be attached by hand with some care. I'll leave it up for now so the lucky Freegler who take is can see how it goes together. It is huge, though, so only ask for it if you've got space.
