Has The Famous Bankrupt Shop on Borough Road, (just passed the library) closed down? Each time I drive by, the shutters are down. It would be ironic if it had actually gone bankrupt.

I pass this shop on my way to work and the shutters are still down so it doesn't look promising.

It's been like that for months, so I'm assuming the place is no more. Shame really as they had some nice stuff there frown

has indeed gone into liquidation, however they are still trading, albeit as a 'different' company from their other store in Stafford Street, Liverpool. All fabric still £4.00 per metre.
