A historic listed building that was formerly home to a legal firm that recently fell into administration is due to go under the hammer.
The property at 5 Roundstone Street in Trowbridge, otherwise known as Rodney House, was the former listed address of BLB Solicitors’, a legal firm with offices across Wiltshire.
As has been extensively covered by this paper, the company fell into administration on April 30, leaving its clients in limbo .
The administrators brought in to manage the company’s affairs have announced in a statement of proposals that they would be selling the firm’s freehold properties.
The Georgian-era Rodney House is being marketed by auction house Lambert Smith Hampton and is listed as a vacant freehold grade II*-listed office, spread out across 478.44 square metres.
