Furleys, 51 High Street, Oakham, Rutland, Closed Down

Furleys, 51 High Street, Oakham, Rutland, Closed Down

Furleys closes its largest retail premises 51 High Street Oakham, unlike its Burley Road premises the retailer
has found a new trader for the above premises  very quickly. So it won't turns happy like the Limes next door the former Royal British Legion Club.

It will be interesting to see who has taken on the very large double fronted three storey store.

I am told before Furleys moved into this property this home for a Hardware Store.
