Marks & Spencer signs are going up at the former Debenhams in Bath as work progresses to get the new store ready for opening in February.
Signs have gone up for the new M&S store
The department store closed in 2021 and M&S announced in summer 2024 that it would be moving from Stall Street into the empty premises in Southgate Place, and investing £17 million to turn it into a new flagship store.
M&S secured planning permission to carry out building work as part of its refurbishment of the building.
The work includes new windows and removing three of the ‘dummy’ columns on the side of the building which faces onto Dorchester Street to help open up the proposed entrance on that side.
M&S has also been granted advertisement consent for a variety of new signage.
The Stall Street site will continue trading until the new store opens.
