Fire-hit Oxfordshire councils move into temporary home

The blaze in January destroyed the buildings in Crowmarsh Gifford

Staff from two councils who were left without an office after a major fire, will move into new premises later.

South Oxfordshire and Vale of White Horse offices in Crowmarsh Gifford were gutted by a fire on 15 January.

A four-year lease has been signed for a building at Milton Park in Abingdon, where around 100 workers will initially move in.

Andrew Main, 47, from Rokemarsh, has admitted starting the fire and two other blazes.

The new offices at Milton Park will not open to the public until the end of June.

Staff worked from other buildings or from home after the Crowmarsh Gifford fire
