Briggs Carpets have taken the 3,202 sq ft premises on a new three year lease from landlord E H Booth & Co. Ltd. with Robert Pinkus & Co. acting on behalf of the landlord.
John and Joan Briggs from Brigg’s Carpets said: “We are a local family team with over 80 years combined trade experience servicing the people of Longridge and the local surrounding areas. We are delighted that we have been able to secure prime retail premises in the heart of the town centre where we can continue to serve our loyal customers and expand our showroom capabilities, displaying more of the carpet and bedroom furniture stock we have to offer.”

They offer a complementary retail service alongside some successful, independent local traders and will bolster the individuality and eclectic retail mix in the town.
