AN IRON and metal gate manufacturer have permanently closed the doors to their showroom in Hinckley town centre, after making the decision to re-locate.

Yesterday (17 March), Ironcraft put up posters on the windows of their Coventry Road-based store opposite Regent Street, explaining that their showroom has moved.

It simply reads: “We are moving our showroom to our workshop premises at 92 High St, Earl Shilton, Leicestershire, LE9 7DG”, with a phone number and email address.

The former showroom has since been emptied out as a result.

At the time of publication (18 March), no further details were given as to why the decision was made to move the workshop into their existing Earl Shilton location.

But, the relocation did not comes as a surprise as a “to let” sign was recently spotted at the side of the property, hinting that the space would soon be up for grabs.

The “to let” sign explains that the ground and first floor of the property is up for grabs and that it is being marketed by Wards, an estate agents based on Station Road.

This is not the only showroom to re-locate in recent weeks, as Paul Edwards Interiors re-located from their Trinity Lane-based location, next to the Sumac restaurant into a former estate agents on New Buildings.
