Martin Wilkinson Jewellers will shut after serving customers since it opened in 1794.
BBC News
Martin Wilkinson Jewellers, in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, will close in the new year when current owner Andrew Campin retires. "It's a combination of things that made me think that now is the right time to go," Mr Campin, from Mansfield, said. "Particularly as I have a number eight at the beginning of my age now."At this stage though I'm looking forward to it but I'm not the kind of guy who sits on his bum and does nothing. I've moved into property development with my son-in-law, which will be something that will irritate my wife to death.
During World War Two, the business became renowned for servicing bomber command wrist watches to Army personnel.
