TWO friends who first worked together six years ago have teamed up to open an independent estate agency in Whittlesey.

Paul Rose and Peter Harrison met whilst working for Sharman Quinney and have opened Harrison Rose in Eastgate.

The agency, which opened for business on Monday, is open seven days a week and specialises in Whittlesey and the surrounding villages - including Eastrea, Coates, Turves, Thorney and Crowland.

They promise full colour details and floor plans, no sale no fee and no withdrawal charges and free valuations.

Mr Harrison said: “We are close friends that have gone into business together after many months of planning.

“We chose Whittlesey because we both feel it is a growing area and nice town to live in. There is a lot of developments planned here and we feel there is a market for another agent.”
