IT'S the end of an era as one of Dunfermline High Street's longest-established businesses is to close.
Electrical and furniture shop 'Andrew Thomson' has been a feature of the High Street for decades with the family firm specialising in consumer goods for more than 80 years.
Store worker Stuart Penny confirmed the news of the closure with the Press this week.
He said: "It's the effects of COVID.
"Unfortunately, we cannot get in enough stock in bulk.
"It's not the manufacturers' fault as they can't source materials and unfortunately we cannot wave a magic wand either.
"It's very sad."
The store has not confirmed when it will close.
