The existing HQ’s can be seen in the above right picture and the new building will be just beyond where the pedestrian is walking. In the above right picture the HQ will be built where the pile of tarmac lies.

Progress has been made in marking out and digging up the tarmac where the footings for the new building will be sited.

A large pile drill/crane arrived on site last night which can be seen in the centre right of the second photo above.

The footings have now been dug and steel mesh reinforcing frames have been laid in the trenches. Form work for the concrete to be poured into has also been constructed around the mesh.

In a little under a fortnight, the preparations for the footings were completed, the concrete poured and the steel frame of the building started.

The site stands idle during the Christmas and New Year break, but already the final outline structure and the overall height of the new 3 storey building can be seen.  


The "flat" gable end seen in the right hand photo is where the remainder of the retail and will attach and turn a right angle back along the High Street.
