A popular Largs Main Street business has decided to close rather than renew its lease.
Goody 2 Shoes will close from Saturday October 1, but will continue to do a delivery service to the town from its other shops in Kilwinning and Ayr.
A spokesperson for the store says the closure is due to the town only having a six month tourist season whilst overheads run all year round.
They added: "We will miss this beautiful community and all the wonderful people we've come to know here.
"This is not goodbye but thank you."
