Iceland will open its latest store in Armagh next month.

The new Iceland will be based at Unit 1 of The Spires Retail Park, off the Moy Road in the city.
It is due to open to the public on January 14 and will bring a number of much-needed jobs to the city.
Elsewhere in Armagh, Emerson’s Supermarket’s plans for a major extension are still under consideration.
The family-owned business has plans to take over the Walkers Shop at Market Street, which will close after a century in business.

Elsewhere, Rosewood Villa, based at the former Longstone Hospital site off the Loughgall Road, is also subject to a major planning application which is under review.
The Southern Health and Social Care Trust has submitted plans for office accommodation on the site, together with additional car parking.
