Barnfield moves Lancashire lawyers

The Blackburn office of Lancashire law firm Napthens are relocating to new premises owned by Barnfield Construction in Challenge Way, Whitebirk.

The two-storey, 4,510 sq ft office in Greenbank Court will house 25 staff, moving from Wellington Street in Blackburn town centre. The new office will open for clients from mid-September following a new fit-out by Barnfield.

Martin Windle, partner and head of the Blackburn office, said: "We have a very active set of clients in East Lancashire and believe that this relocation will allow us to better serve them.

Earlier this year, Napthens' Blackpool office moved from the centre of the town to premises on the Whitehills Business Park, at Junction 4 of the M55.
