THE huge former Woolworths building in High Street will re-open as a branch of home products retailer Wilkinson later this month.
The 15,500 sq ft store has been empty since it closed, along with all other Woolworths stores, last December.
A Wilkinson's spokesman said the new store will provide 81 jobs and help to revitalise the High Street.
The new store will open its doors on November 26.
