Barratt's administration means closure of three Irish shoe shops

Three Irish branches of the Priceless shoe store chain are to close before Christmas.

The retailer is owned by the Barratt's chain, which went into UK administration earlier this month.

Stores in Carlow, Donaghmede in Dublin and Strabane in Co. Tyrone, will close on Friday.

Ten other Priceless stores and five branches of Barratt's in the UK will also cease trading at the end of the week.
