A RUN-DOWN former office building has been put up for sale in a bid to cut costs and raise cash.

Tendring Council has announced it will sell Clay Hall, on Vista Road Recreation Ground, after it has sat unused for about two years.

The building, thought to date back more than 100 years, was once council offices before becoming a changing facility and car park.

Council spokesman Nigel Brown said: “Clay Hall is a nice historic building that is in need of some TLC."
