More high street chains will be closing their doors for good before the end of this month.

Some popular chains set to go include bargain store B&M and fashion retailer Newlook.

Supermarket chains Iceland and Lidl will also be closing some sites.

Sadly most of these stores will just disappear from the high street but others will be moving or replaced with other stores.

B&M and Lidl will close two stores this month, while Iceland and New Look are set to shut one.

The New Look branch will be shutting its doors for good at the end of the day today - so shoppers don't have long.

The fashion chain's Newlands Shopping Centre store in Witham, Essex will close for good at 5:30pm.

New Look has already shut a handful of stores earlier this year.

B&M closed its Bowers Retail Park store in Widnes Cheshire yesterday on Wednesday May 17 but shoppers will be relieved to hear that this store will be actually be reopening somewhere new - and not too far away.

B&M's new site will be opening in the previous Range site just across the way on Dennis Road.

B&M's Burden Retail Park store in Bolton will then follow suit and shut its doors on May 24 - although shoppers will be able to head to the chain's Manchester Road site nearby.

Iceland has already shut the doors on more than half a dozen shops this year, but more closures are on the way.

Iceland is set to shut a branch in Flint, Wales next week on Saturday May 27.

Lidl is closing two shops this month on Sturry Road, Canterbury and Forton Road, Gosport, in Hampshire, both of which will close for business on Sunday, May 28.

The discount supermarket said the decision was made as the poor condition of the building in Canterbury had rendered it "unfit for purpose", though staff will be offered new jobs in other alternative stores.
