A popular supermarket in Amersham is set to close at the end of this year.

Iceland confirmed this afternoon that their Amersham store, located at 75 Sycamore Road, will close on December 31 2015.

In a statement the supermarket said: "We are very grateful for the custom and support of the community and will continue to actively increasing our estate and look for new opportunities."

Chairman of Chiltern District Council, Mimi Harker, said: "There is a huge proportion of the town who will be devastated as this is affordable and good quality for many everyday basics. It will be a huge loss to the town."

The next nearest Iceland store in on High Street, High Wycombe.
