Good Old Fashioned Friendship

That's the current ethos of Morrish Builders in Poole where they have recently released their town centre development in Ferndown of twelve one & two bedroom apartments.

The actual development has been named after local, respected businessman Ray Osborne.

When Les Morrish (late father of current owners and joint managing directors Steven and David Morrish ) and Fred Cummings established Cummings & Morrish over 60 years ago, local electrician Ray Osborne carried out electrical contracts on their sites.

Their friendship blossomed with Les and his wife, Jill regularly meeting up with Ray and his wife, Eileen. They had all grown up in Hamworthy together.

“This friendly relationship has continued through the years and Ray and Eileen's daughter Jacqui was invited to our launch event” says joint managing director Steven Morrish.

“Ray did much charitable work through the Freemasons. He was a much liked and respected local man and giving this development his name is a fitting way of remembering him”.
