Poundland, located in Unit 7, Market Quay, 3 Cremer Mall, will be closing up shop on December 8 and moving to a new unit in the high street.

There has been a lot of speculation surrounding where the retailer might be moving to but the former Marks & Spencer and the Wilko stores were the most likely contenders.
