The Dorothy Perkins Store In Warminster Will Close Its Doors For The Last Time On Saturday 22 October 2016

Thursday 6th October 2016

 The Dorothy Perkins store at 51 Market Place,
Warminster, will close its doors for the final
time on Saturday 22nd October 2016.

 Last trading day:
Saturday 22nd October 2016.

Signs in the store’s windows say
“It’s not goodbye when we close”
but there has been no announcement
about Dorothy Perkins opening another
store elsewhere in Warminster.

 The signs say:
“Visit us at: Dorothy Perkins,
24-25 Stall Street, Bath, BA1 1TG.”

Many women in Warminster have
expressed their disappointment that
the Market Place shop is closing down . . .

. . . and dismay that the premises
will become a Boots opticians.

Back on 18th February 2016, Boots
submitted a planning application for new
signage at 51 Market Place, Warminster,
for Boots Opticians and Hearing Care.
