A NEW business providing affordable goods has opened in Dovercourt.

Bargain Store in High Street, Dovercourt, opened on Tuesday and offers furniture and seasonal goods at low prices.

James Round, 25, of Briardale Avenue, came up with the idea to open the shop after working in internet sales.

He said: “Harwich needs something which is affordable. In Harwich a lot of people cannot afford to go out and buy stuff."
