Former radio station studio up for auction

A former community radio studio based in Wolverhampton is to go under the hammer at auction.

South Asian community radio station, Radio Kanshi, broadcast in English and Punjabi from a property in Cartwright Street, close to the city centre, auctioneers SDL Property Auctions, said.

The building has two ground-floor offices and a first-floor three-bedroom apartment and will be sold on 29 May with a guide price of £150,000.

Andrew Parker, partner and auctioneer at SDL Property Auctions, said the property was "full of the vibrancy of live community radio, and it has great potential to be put to good use once again".

"It's also in an excellent location, on Cartwright Street, very close to Wolverhampton city centre and with a large number of thriving retail, trade counter and automotive businesses in the immediate area."

The radio station will be among more than 220 other properties and plots of land to be available for sale at the auction later this month, the company added.
