New HQ in Cambridge

National law firm Mills & Reeve has moved into a prestigious new headquarters in Cambridge after the completion of a £2.45m office fit out by Overbury.

More than 300 employees have transferred activities to the new offices at Botanic House—a new landmark building on Hills Road.

The seven-storey office development stands between the city’s historic core and the train station. The 60,000 sq ft lens-shaped property, designed by Formation Architects, overlooks Cambridge University’s Botanic Garden.

Ian Mather, partner and head of the Cambridge office for Mills & Reeve, says: “This move demonstrates Mills & Reeve’s commitment to both Cambridge and the wider region.”
