Popular clothing shop to permanently shut after 113 years with ‘heavy hearts’ as it launches huge 50% off closing sale A POPULAR clothing shop is set to permanently shut after 113 years with "heaving hearts" as it launches a huge 50 per cent off closing sale.
The family-owned clothing store in Sutton-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire was established in 1912 during the reign of King George V. After over a century in business, Clement Taylor will close its doors due to a lack of "footfall" and "rising costs".
The spokesperson said in a Facebook post: "It is with a heavy heart that after 113 years of trading, we will be closing up shop.
In some cases, retailers are shutting a store and reopening a new shop at the other end of a high street to reflect how a town has changed.
A spokesperson for Clement Taylor revealed it will close once all the stock has gone - which could be in just a few weeks.
