Edinburgh shopping centre set for mega Poundland as store could double in size

An existing Poundland store within an Edinburgh shopping centre could be set to double in size after plans have been lodged to buy the empty unit next door.

Poundland at Newkirkgate, Leith, are behind the plans to take over the former Bright House shop next door and an application with internal and external blueprints have now been validated by the council.

If granted, the store would nearly double in size and occupy the unit at 3-4 Newkirkgate. The news comes in recent light of a host of changes at the shopping area, with the busy Farmfoods store also closing at the end of 2022.
