Hemel Hempstead shoppers will be disappointed to learn that another Marlowes store is closing its doors.
The site shared by female fashion chain Dorothy Perkins and men’s clothes store Burton ceases trading on Saturday.
The nearest Dorothy Perkins outlets can be found inside BHS stores in St Albans and Watford’s Harlequins Centre, while Burton fans will have to travel to Welwyn Garden City or Stevenage.
A Dorothy Perkins spokesman refused to comment on staff jobs.
