They will shut on Tuesday 24 July.

Discussions with interested parties over the potential sale of "part, or parts of the remaining business" are ongoing, administrators from Deloitte said.

"We are keeping staff appraised of developments as they happen," joint administrator Clare Boardman said.

"We would like to thank all the employees for their continued support and commitment during this difficult time," she added.

This marks the third closure announcement from Poundworld's administrator in two weeks.

The latest round of closures includes the stores in Queensferry and Bangor.
