I went to Woolworths in Leominster,Woolworths in Hereford,Woolworths in Truro in Cornwall and Woolworths in St.Ives near where I live.
'Tis depressing times. My post office that was just over the road has closed and it was our only shop! Our nearest shop is now a 20 minute walk away!

@daniel246 i thought it was 1909? and all stores were closed by the 2nd week of 2009. its more likely to be 99 years which doesn't count as 100 years unfortunately!

Woolworth's in America have been gone since the late 90's. My family is originally from Aberystwyth and visiting there I have been in the Woolworth's in the video a few times. I'm sure they are going to miss it now. The one reference that stands out in my mind is the Cohen Bros. movie, 'Oh Brother Where Art Thou', where George Clooney gets into a fight and is thrown out of Woolworths. Delmar says, "Everett was thrown out of Woolworths, but I don't know if it was just that one or all of them."

Excellent! An important piece of social history that will be more and more important as time moves on.

Ah! You were too late for Aberystwyth's best ever shop. Humphrey Jones was a couple of doors further up Great Darkgate: evrything from battery powered robots and Hornby trains, to 6" nails, pots, pans and plates. The staff were 'gents' who wore brown coats and could give DIY advice. The place smelled of its paraffin heaters and the floorboards were scrubbed pine. Mind you, we still have a rubber plant bought from Aberystwyth Woolies in 1975, chosen 'cos it was the worst one on display!
