Topshop closed in February 2021 when the brand was taken over by ASOS following the collapse of the Arcadia retail empire, since then the unit has been left empty.

The store will offer value Christmas goods including seasonal gift bags, wrapping paper, Christmas trees, crackers, cards and an assortment of decorations.
