Ross-on-Wye's branch of Dorothy Perkins will close on January 12th, 2013.

The move comes as Sir Phillip Green, boss of Arcadia, announced that the company will be closing around 250 stores. Arcadia group, which owns other high street brands Topshop, Miss Selfridge, BHS and Burton, has seen profits plummet by 38 per cent.

The exact number of stores to close and number of job losses is yet to be confirmed but Sir Phillip Green has stated that approximately half of the group's stores, where the leases expire in the next three years, will close. The downturn in profits was blamed on the unseasonably warm weather during Autumn.
