MORE than twice the expected number of people made the most of a guided tour and free gigs at a 200-year-old barn, which has been converted into a state-of-the-art studio.

Grange Farm Studio, near Emneth, held its launch party on Saturday with six live acts performing to visitors and guided tours showing people behind the scenes of the recording and production studio.

Studio owner Lucy Ryan said: "We thought we would get about 50 people through the doors but we got well over 100 people come along.

"We also got a television production team have a look around, as well as a number of musicians to talk about recording music."

The studio, which took two years to construct, is open for clients looking to record music. It will also play host to children's parties and hen nights.
