AN expanding firm of accountants has opened an extension to its Ferryhill premises.

Clients, friends and members of the town's business community attended an official opening at Little and Neal, in Market Street.

Little and Neal moved to Ferryhill from Darlington, where it was founded by chartered accountant David Little and tax consultant Alan Neal.

Clients include businesses in the area as well as a growing base of commercial companies around the North-East.

Earlier this year, the company acquired premises adjoining a former gym in Market Street and after substantial alterations, extended the office premises to form one office suite with provision for disabled clients and visitors.

Staff at Little and Neal are drawn from the Ferryhill area
