'It's a wrench to leave' says Bold Street gallery owner as doors close for final time

Bold Street has been through a magnitude of changes in the last three decades. It has become one of the most eclectic locations in Liverpool, brimming with independent businesses.

Today, though, marks the end of an era for the family run Rennies Gallery which will close its doors for the final time marking the end of a business that has run across Merseyside for almost 60 years. The gallery was founded by Ronald and Jean Rennie in 1965, with several locations across Liverpool, St Helens and Wirral.

It was with their son Duncan that they settled on Bold Street in 1991 and have remained at 61-63 until the final day today. With its other locations also winding up, Duncan said, despite attempts to downsize to a smaller outlet, Rennies will close its doors for good this weekend.
