Images have been released showing demolition work at a former local government headquarters.

The Shire Hall office complex at Shinfield Park was home to Berkshire County Council from 1981 until the county was reorganised into six unitary authorities in 1998.

Developer Wrenbridge has submitted plans to replace the site with five warehouse-style business and industrial buildings.

Demolition is expected to be completed later this year.
