The last GT News in Sheffield city centre has closed.

The unit on Surrey Street is empty after the store shut before Christmas.

It is the latest in a long line of GT News outlets to go. There were shops across Sheffield including at Manor Top and Crystal Peaks shopping centre, and Pinstone Street, a kiosk on Castle Square and West Street in the city centre.
