Chris and Sue Gardner who are selling the Last of the Summer Wine exhibition in what used to be Compo’s home under Nora Batty’s in Holmfirth. Comedy fans could be set to get their hands on a piece of sitcom history with an iconic part of the Last of the Summer Wine set up for sale. See Ross Parry story RPYWINE; The on-screen home to the slapstick show’s legendary bumbling old fool Compo had grown into a permanent exhibition for fans of the comedy to visit. But after 13 years of running the museum, the owners are planning to sell up to let “new blood” take over the reins. Despite the site having one of its busiest Augusts trading ever, the owners fear it will truly be the end of the summer wine if a buyer isn’t found. Sue Gardner, 55, who runs the attraction with husband Chris, said they weren’t fans of the show but spotted an opportunity when the former owners decided to move on.
