A JEWELLERY and crystal shop at The Old Market Shopping Centre in Hereford has closed its doors.

Swarovski, which was opposite River Island, was a franchise and sold crystal and gemstones as well as jewellery and accessories.

The franchisee works with a number of different brands and hopes to fill the unit with one of these.

Restaurant chains Prezzo and Chimichanga shut their doors for good at the shopping centre in April and the units remain empty.

Nationally Prezzo closed 94 restaurants - including 33 outlets of its TexMex chain Chimichanga.

In March Herefordshire Councillor David Harlow, cabinet member for economy and communications, said at a meeting: "I have spoken to British Land in the last week with regards to the restaurants. I can indeed confirm there have got a waiting list but I am not going to share the names today."

A spokeswoman for The Old Market Shopping Centre said they were unable to comment.
