Law firm Wood Awdry and Ford has taken on new office space at Bewley House in Chippenham for 25 members of staff in the litigation and housing teams.

They have taken up the whole of the first floor, which is owned and managed by HPH Commercial Property.

The firm will also keep on its existing offices in St Mary Street, which it has occupied since the 1930s.

Andrew Herridge, partner of the litigation team, said: "Our new premises have been fitted out to meet our requirements and will also allow for planned future expansion.

"Bewley House was refurbished with a view to meeting the requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act, enabling us to provide easier access for all clients. We are pleased to have found such a central location."
