The Hounds Gate building which used to house a Peppers hair salon has been placed up for sale on Rightmove. It is unclear how long the business has been vacant with some locals suggesting it may have been closed for two years.
The dark green salon still has the gold lettering above the door but the store is empty with tubs of hair products on the floor. It is still fully fitted with hairdressing fixtures.
The building is being offered as an ideal location for a barber or hairdressing salon as it retains some of the fixtures from Peppers. The street is a mixture of residential and businesses just around the corner from Wheeler Gate, off Old Marker Square. The rental agreement is being offered with a long-term lease which would secure the site until 2028.
