Earlier this week The News got an exclusive look inside the new M&S store.
The 50,000 square feet shop is built over two floors and has many different departments including women’s, men’s and children’s clothing, and food.
The store has created 120 jobs.
This comes after an increase in jobs when Next opened its new store at the site in April.
