School uniform shop closes after 109 years
AN INDEPENDENT shop selling school uniforms has closed after 109 years.
Henry Taylor, in Hoe Street, Walthamstow, had been based in Waltham Forest throughout its history but has now moved its business entirely online.
In a statement, management said the closure was due to a shortage of stock and the "restructuring" of the business, but they did not elaborate further.
Items sold on its website are being sold at 40 per cent off the shop price.
Henry Taylor has not responded to the Guardian's requests for a comment.
