I'm having problems compiling a simple ROS service. I'm using a fresh install of Ubuntu 18.04.3 - ROS Melodic. Ive simplified down the project as much as I can to replicate the problem.

My project structure is as follows

src/
    control_bridge/
        src/
            control_service.cpp
        srv/
            set_demand.srv
        CMakeLists.txt
        package.xml

My file content is as follows:

control_service.cpp:

#include "ros/ros.h"
#include "std_msgs/Float32.h"


bool set_demand(std_msgs::Float32 &request,std_msgs::Float32 &response)
{
    return true;
}

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
  ros::init(argc, argv, "control_service");

  ros::NodeHandle nh;
  ros::ServiceServer service;
  service = nh.advertiseService("set_demand",set_demand);

  ros::spin();

  return 0;
}

set_demand.srv

float32 request
---
float32 response

When running catkin_make I get the following error:
