The ground floor of the building was badly impacted by the floods caused by Storm Desmond in December 2015 and had been unused for six years as a result. Extensive refurbishment works were required to repurpose the ground floor which previously housed a large amount of the council’s public-facing operations.

Please pass on my thanks to the Story site team for the professionalism and teamwork that ensured the aforementioned success.
