"Closing down 20 per off full price."

Signs are also directing customers to shop online with a link to the firm's website. 

A number of closing down 20 per cent off signs have also been put up in the store, including on stairs next to the till. SIGNS: The closing down signs in the shop (Image: Sam Greenway/Newsquest)

A Worcester News reporter asked staff for more details who directed us to the shop's owners, the Frasers group.

We have approached Frasers for comment.

That came after The Times newspaper reported the fashion retailer was looking for a cheaper property in Worcester. 

At the time a spokesperson for Jack Wills told us: "Like all retail businesses, we are always reviewing our store portfolio across the UK to ensure that our stores are in the right locations and in the right areas.

"However, we have no current plans to leave Brighton, Chester, Cheltenham or Worcester.”
