Staff Down Tools as Baby Arabella Steals the Show at Sheffield Assay Office
Published: 11th March 2024
Staff at Sheffield Assay Office had a very special tiny little visitor this week, when Assay Master, Ashley Carson brought in his beautiful six week old granddaughter, Arabella.
Whilst Arabella's mum was taking a well earned rest, Grandad Ashley took the opportunity to bring her into the Office and introduce her to staff.
Word has it that the impeccably well behaved Arabella has spread broodiness all around, and there has been a lot of talk about future maternity leave!
Congratulations Ashley. Little Arabella is adorable!
