Malmesbury-based letting agent Maison Let has moved to new offices in the High Street after doubling in size over the last two years.

Indeed, the firm has just appointed a new member of staff, Jo Corbett, who joins Gail Aitken, Rachael Brooks and managing director Jane Maslin.

Said Maslin: "Despite our initial worries about Lucent and Dyson job losses and a difficult letting market in general, Malmesbury's letting market seems to have bucked the national trend.

"More people are buying their own homes, but with the easy commute to Swindon, Malmesbury's has proved popular for buy-to-let."
