please tell me how much these shares are worth

170k worth of Irish Independent shares 10 years ago would be worth today. Roughly even, I haven't a clue how to find out...trying to keep my elderly aunt OUT of a nursing home she doesn't want to go into. Her share (one fifth) of them could pay for nursing care at home. They have been lying in a solicitors office, no tax paid on them goodness knows what about the interest/dividend. All forgotten about (and the solicitor kept quiet about it!).
Thanks

    As far as I can see, Independent News & Media (IPD.IR) have gone nowhere really in price terms (in fact probably backwards, depending on the date they were valued at £170k), though the dividends on them should still be enough to help towards keeping her in comfort, you probably wouldn't even need to sell any.

    I'd be surprised if she wasn't receiving around £5k a year in divis.
