A jewellers in Dorchester is set to close its doors for the final time.

Signet Jewelers, which owns H. Samuel, confirmed the branch at 7 Cornhill is earmarked for closure.

The store will close on March 16.

It is not known if any jobs will be affected.

In a statement, a spokesman for Signet said: "We continually re-assess our portfolio of stores on a store by store basis, particularly when individual store leases come up for renewal.

"This particular closure bears no reflection upon the future plans of the Signet business estate overall within the UK.

"We are sorry to be leaving 7 Cornhill, however we do have a wide online offering."
