A LONG running building company that has employed people across the county for decades has gone out of business.

Family-run restoration and refurbishment firm Boshers, based in Cholsey, South Oxfordshire, has ceased trading after going into administration yesterday.

The business has been taken on by administrators Leonard Curtis Rescue and Recovery.

It has been reported that staff have been made redundant but this has not been confirmed.

The business was registered as a limited company in 1972 but has been running as a family business since 1820.
