A Nidderdale steel firm has gone into administration, according to official documents.
Harrogate Steel Company Ltd, which is based on Mill Hurst Business Park just outside Dacre, was founded by Dan Worsell and Richard Searle in 2016.
Mr Searle stepped down as a director at the end of 2023.
The company, whose website says it is “big enough to trust but small enough to care”, offers in-house design, fabrication and installation services for construction projects as far afield as Bristol and London.
Local projects have included the construction of Paradise restaurant at Daleside Nurseries in Killinghall, and the filming gantry above the Barclay LED stand at Harrogate Town AFC.
According to the latest available accounts for the company, in the year to the end of December 2022, the business employed an average of 28 employees.
It owed creditors more than £1 million and had net assets totalling just over £270,000.
Online public records journal The Gazette said Andrew Ryder of County Antrim-based insolvency practitioners JT Maxwell was appointed administrator on April 10.
