Sheffield John Lewis closure 'hammer blow' to the city, MP says

The Sheffield John Lewis store has been described as a "retail landmark" by a council official

Sheffield shopper Melanie Sinnett said she had wonderful memories of John Lewis and had shopped there for as long as she could remember. The Sheffield John Lewis store, located at Barkers Pool, was also at the heart of a planned redevelopment of the city centre and in 2020 the company surrendered its old lease for the site to the council for £3m.

Sad news indeed. God knows what's going to replace it, just hope it's not bloody Primark!

Not sure “hammer blow” for the whole city is accurate but let’s be under no illusions this is bad. The high street is shrinking at a rate we can’t keep up with & the unemployment queue is only getting longer. If we want to avoid an expensive UBI system it’s time to act.

😢

Scc will be rasing the car parking charges soon then.... Its the only tactic they know... Then they will wonder why less people go

OMG where is this Labour MP going to go now to buy all the stuff they claim on expenses? 🤔

I’ve told you a billion times not to exaggerate.

John Lewis in Birmingham closed months ago

Can’t keep these old dinosaurs alive forever. Internet shopping is so much more enjoyable and efficient.

Wow loved wandering round there when I was staying in Sheffield. I did buy stuff too 👍 Sad. Jenners in Edinburgh closing too - end of an era maybe 🤔 😕

This is devastating. Where is my new “in town toilet” going to be? M and S are a pain and the ones in the Millenium Gallery are too far. Big decisions need to be made. Soul searching ahead.
