The former Debenhams in Sheffield city centre has been closed for a year – this is what it looks like inside.

The owners are selling up just over 12 months after acquiring the huge building on The Moor.

Allsop auctioneers have produced a brochure with eerie interior pictures of the once bustling and much-loved store. Do you recognise anything?
