The company will be based at The Moat House, while offices in the main building and adjoining converted stables will be available to rent.

The Moat House is a Grade II listed building located in the Anchorage Road conservation area. It was designed and built in 1680 as a mansion house by William Wilson, builder, architect and student of Sir Christopher Wren, as a home for his new wife, Jane Pudsey, who had previously owned Langley Hall.
