FOLLOWING a survey of shoppers in Stockton a new store is set to open in the town's Wellington Square Centre.

The survey, carried out earlier this year, showed that River Island was one of the retailers shoppers wanted to come to Wellington Square.

Work has started on a 6,700sq ft unit, opposite the Pilot store, although no date has yet been given for completion.

This is the second new store to open in the past three months at the centre, following the recent arrival of Au Naturale.
