Decade-old honeybee hive found at leisure centre

A 10-year-old honeybee hive has been found at a leisure centre in Surrey.

While renovating an old pavilion building, the team at Leatherhead Leisure Centre discovered the hive hidden inside two cavity walls.

Bee expert Stephen Sene, from Sene Pest Control in Rochester, Kent, said it was the "oldest hive I've come across in over seven years".

The bees are now under Mr Sene's care at his farm, where they have been split into two colonies.
