An Arnold shop destined to close this month will now be staying open. Clarks confirmed in November that its factory shop in Front Street would be closing in January.
However, it has emerged the store will now be staying after a new lease was completed with the landlord. Customers will be pleased as previously they voiced their frustration and disappointment over the shop closing. One said: "Feel really concerned about the closing down of shops in Arnold over the years. My age group has not got the energy/mobility to go into town trying on shoes."
The U-turn comes following the closure of one of the company's shops in Nottingham city centre. The Wheeler Gate branch has gone but a second branch, just a few minutes' walk across Old Market Square, remains open in Long Row.
