A local landmark heads to the auction block this week.

A posting on the sign of the Mattapoisett Chowder House on Route 6 indicates the building is to be auctioned off at 11am Wednesday.

The auction is being handled by West Springfield-based Aaron Posnik Auctioneers. Executive Vice President Corey Fisher tells Wicked Local Marion everything from kitchen equipment, tables and chairs, the restaurant's liquor license, and the building itself will be up for bid at the auction.

Those interested in placing bids will be available to tour the site beginning at 8:30am.

Last summer, the restaurant was placed into receivership after a filing by Webster Bank in order to collect collateral on an $800,000 debt.
