A PRE-SCHOOL in Taunton has suddenly closed after 15 years. 

Runabouts Pre-school, which moved to the Ablemarle Centre in October, has stopped operating at the centre. 

The pre-school, previously known as Railway Runabouts, had been in operation since 1992. 

Ofsted rated the pre-school as "good" in 2014.

The pre-school's website has been de-activated and the County Gazette has been unable to reach the team on their phone number. 

Somerset County Council has not received official confirmation that the pre-school has closed but the Ablemarle Centre has confirmed Runabouts is no longer running its pre-school there.
