The NN Contemporary art studio in Guildhall Road closed its doors this month ahead of a planned move across the road into a set of empty council offices.

The block of offices at the end of County Hall where Angel Street meets Guildhall Road have been empty since the county council moved into One Angel Square in 2017.
