Tragic history of Church Street building M&S is leaving after nearly 100 years

Retail giant Marks and Spencer announced yesterday it would be moving to a new building in Liverpool One after nearly a century on Church Street.

M&S announced to staff on Thursday that they would be moving out of Compton House, their iconic site on Church Street, after nearly 100 years. The retail giant will be moving to the Debenhams building on Lord Street in Liverpool One.

Debenhams closed its Liverpool store in May, along with 123 others nationally. The collapse of the retailer saw the loss of around 12,000 jobs.
