Hey folks! Exciting news for all you martial arts enthusiasts in Aberdeenshire. Banchory Martial Arts, a local martial arts group, has big plans to relocate to a new venue. They’ve got their eyes set on the Morrice Plant Hire building on Burn O’Bennie Road. How cool is that? Currently, they’re running their sessions at Banchory Academy and Strachan Hall, but they’re ready to level up and move into this industrial unit. Talk about a major upgrade!
Now, let me give you the lowdown on what they’ve got in mind. The proposals include creating a spacious floor area for their sessions, along with an office space and toilets on the ground floor. And guess what? They’re even planning to have parking space for 12 vehicles. No more struggling to find a parking spot, my friends!
But wait, there’s more! The current owners of the building, Morrice Plant Hire Ltd, have decided to cease trading from the unit. They’re going through some changes to simplify their hire process. And guess who’s fully on board with the martial arts group taking over? Yep, you guessed it! The owners are totally supportive of the application and the new use of the building. It’s great to see local businesses supporting each other.
