Moreton Morell college “open as normal” after fire

After the devastating fire at Moreton Hall on Warwickshire College’s Moreton Morrell campus, the college wants to reassure students the college is open as normal.

All students are asked to return to college as planned after the Easter break, and all classes will be continuing as scheduled.

The fire was confined to Moreton Hall, which is only one part of the campus. No people or animals at the college, which mainly runs land-based courses, were injured, and no other facilities were affected.

The police have described the cause of the fire as “accidental”. A full investigation into the fire is ongoing.
