Signage for a major retailer has appeared on the front of a former hardware and DIY store in Sudbury. 

B&Q closed its doors for the last time at its Woodhall Business Park site in July and now signs for variety store B&M have been spotted on the front of the building.

The signs read: "Your new B&M store is coming soon. We can't wait to meet you." 

Containers and machinery have also been spotted outside the front door of the shop. 

B&Q had operated in Sudbury for more than 12 years before it closed on July 20.

Earlier on in the year it was revealed that the store would close down following the expiry of its lease. 

At the time, Richard Walgate, director of central division at B&Q, said: "Our team of 32 B&Q colleagues have been serving the Sudbury community, helping them to improve and enjoy their homes, for over 12 years.

"They would very much like to continue to serve the local residents and we are continuing to look for an alternative store location in the area."
