Former discount store at 67-67a St Peter's Street, which closed in July 2018 after the chain had gone into administration. The condition of the site has deteriorated significantly since then - compare Image taken a month after closure. Beyond is another discount store, One Below, housed in what was formerly the St Albans branch of rival chain Poundland. Ironically, One Below was founded by the former owners of Poundworld soon after the original firm had gone under.
