The sudden closure of the popular shop is due to the landlord wanting the property back, and New Look will support staff members in finding other roles in the business.

A New Look spokesperson said: “Our store in Bangor will close next month following the landlord’s request to take the property back.

“We are supporting affected store colleagues and finding suitable alternative roles for them within the business wherever possible.

“We would like to thank all of our customers in the local community for shopping with us in recent years.”
