Work continues at Center Parcs

At a press conference on Monday Center Parcs managing director Martin Dalby said all the major structural work on the site has now been completed.

Mr Dalby said the new �45m complex was on schedule to meet its planned re-opening to the public in July.

Fire destroyed much of the plaza building last April - forcing it to close and lay off much of its workforce.

But the company is now looking to recruit 450 more workers in readiness for the re-opening.

The fire destoyed the central dome area of the resort

The fire is thought to have begun during repair work to the resort's distinctive roof structure.

At its height, a large column of smoke could be seen for miles around.
