A popular bargain store will close its doors at the beginning of next month after being told to "leave" by the landlord. 

Poundland, in Broad Street, King's Lynn, is set to close on June 2 following orders to vacate the Vancouver Quarter location. 

A spokesperson said: "We would very much have liked to stay, but the landlord asked us to leave and we’re now looking at other options.

"When we have to close a store, it goes without saying we always work hard to look after colleagues directly affected."

The major retailer joins Iceland and Debenham's recent departures from the town.
