Closing down

The bankruptcy of First Quench Retailing has had an immediate impact on Ham with both of the local off licences now closing down.


Wine Rack on Ham Parade was upgraded from the previous tatty Thresher less that two years ago.


Its red cousin, Thresher, in Ashburnham Road is also closing. Both parades of shops have no empty units at the moment and I hope that new owners are found for these before too long.
