THREE candidates will stand for election to north ward of Devizes Town Council on August 3.

The seat became available after Devizes Guardian Nay Britton resigned just days after the election in May when it was found she should not have been eligible to stand because of criminal conviction.

Now Christine Gay will represent Devizes Guardians, Laura Naylor will stand for Labour and Iain Wallis will be the the Conservative candidate. The polling station will be open from 7am to 10pm.
