The closure of Woolies in Llanelli will hit the town harder than most of the closures as all of the big retailers have moved to the nearby out of town retail parks - Woolies was the only large retailer to remain with M&S and WH Smiths opposite closing in the last 12 months or so. A sad loss of a great British institution.
