A major retailer has suddenly closed down one of its Glasgow city centre stores.
The unit at Princes Square which housed designer brand Ted Baker has been cleared out, with the doors locked.
A sign posted on the door reads: "This store has now closed. For any returns or information please visit our other Ted Baker store at 61 Buchanan Street.
"Sorry for any inconvenience."
The sudden closure comes after The Pen Shop in the centre shut after 35 years in business. The shop was one of the original stores in Princes Square when it opened in 1988.
However, rising costs have forced the business to move out of the shopping centre.
A spokesperson for the Pen Shop said: "Sadly, after trading for over 35 years, the overhead costs continued to rise to a level that was unsustainable and we simply couldn't afford to continue to keep trading in the store.
"We still continue to trade with a full range on our website."
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
