BRIDLINGTON: The town council is set to ask for new offices as part of the town centre's area action plan.

The proposal was put to councillors at a meeting last week by councillor Malcolm Milns, who believes purpose-built offices could be combined with a tourist information centre in the middle of the town.

He said the current offices in Quay Road are too small and mean the town council are unable to hold meetings, surgeries or welcome members of the public.

Hits including Hot Love, Deborah, Get It On, Telegram Sam and Cosmic Dancer will be performed.

Singer-songwriter Marc was best known as the frontman of glam rock group T Rex.

He died in a car crash in 1977, two weeks before his 30th birthday.
