Savills have had premises in Norfolk’s cathedral city since 1950 and recently marked the 75th anniversary of this occasion by planting a tree opposite its current home in St Andrews Street.
Existing and former employees attended the celebration, including Martin Freeth who was aged just 22 when he assisted in establishing the original All Saints Green office. Head of office, Natalie Howlett-Clarke, organised the planting of the London plane tree after discussions with Norwich City Council.
Natalie said: “Savills has a rich history in Norfolk and we all feel incredibly privileged to live and work in such a wonderful part of the world. It was lovely to have an opportunity to celebrate our links with the county by planting what we hope will be a lasting legacy.
“Over the past 75 years we have established ourselves as a leading multi-disciplinary business and we continue to grow and invest in our workforce. We are proud to call Norwich our home and we look forward to many more successful years ahead.”
Savills moved to larger premises in in 1975 on Upper King Street before moving again to Hardwick House on Agricultural Hall Plain and now reside at St Lawrence House in St Andrews Street.
The office’s 44 employees cover residential, development and rural sectors in Norfolk and north Suffolk.
