Clarence Court in Belfast is advertised as having repurposing potential

Stormont's Department for Infrastructure is moving its headquarters from Belfast city centre into the city's Gasworks business park.

It is due to relocate from Clarence Court on Adelaide Street to James House later this year.

Both buildings are owned by the Northern Ireland Executive and Clarence Court has now been put up for sale.

The large office building is being advertised as having "repurposing and redevelopment potential".

It is an eight-storey development which includes a 261 space multi-storey car park.
