The city centre store has launched a closing down sale and relocation signs have been put up in the windows.

A spokesperson for the company said: "Mountain Warehouse is relocating its London St (Norwich) store to Haymarket (Norwich), offering customers a bigger site and a wider choice of products."

It follows the closure last month of its Marshalls Yard store in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire.

And earlier in the year the retailer closed down its Basingstoke store and its premises in the McArthur Glen retail outlet in Swindon.

The retailer will not confirm if it has plans to close any further stores at this time.

Many popular retailers are struggling to make it work on the high street.

Most recently much-loved bargain retailer Wilko collapsed after a last-minute bid to save the entire chain collapsed.

Yesterday it announced that hundreds of workers will lose their jobs as of next week - however, at the moment all of the shops remain open and trading.

Popular greetings card chain Clinton Cards also recently brought in advisers in its bid to keep its presence on the high street.

It comes after the retailer closed a string of stores earlier in the year.

But now it is thought that more closures could be coming with up to 38 of its 225 stores closing down as the retailer tries to stay afloat.

Pharmacy retailer Boots is another big name that has taken to closing stores in its fight for survival.

The chain previously announced that it would be pulling the shutters down on 300 shops over the next year.

However it is not all bad news for the high street, some retailers are flourishing and looking to expand with new premises.

And Poundland recently confirmed that it has plans to open 15 new stores across the UK.
