💨 Abstract

WHSmith is closing its Doncaster branch, part of a broader trend of high street retailers shutting down. The store, which opened in 1968, was a longtime fixture in the Frenchgate shopping centre. Locals are upset over the loss, which follows the closure of other beloved brands in the area. The closure is part of WHSmith's strategy to sell 500 shops, with many set to rebrand as TGJones.
