A PARISH council has moved to a temporary home while its new offices are built.

Stone Parish Council staff have moved to City Arms House in London Road while a £500,000 pavilion is built on the site of its existing offices in the recreation ground off the same road.

They are expected to move into new offices in the pavilion, which will include a function suite with kitchen and bar that can be hired for large events, by the end of the year.

A council spokeswoman said: “Our telephone number and email addresses will remain the same, and any mail sent to the current address will be redirected to the temporary address by Royal Mail.”

The temporary office will be open to the public between 9am and 3pm from Monday to Friday.
