The Poundstretcher store in Chesterfield is set to close this week – adding yet another empty building to the town centre.

Poundstretcher, a popular discount retailer, is set to close its Chesterfield branch on Saltergate this Saturday (March 16).

The store will join a long list of empty buildings in our town centre – as High Streets continue to struggle amid the cost of living crisis and the increasing popularity of online retail.

Below is a list of over 30 empty retail units in Chesterfield.
