A new upmarket, quality menswear store is to open in Burnham-On-Sea’s High Street in June.
Dennis Preddy, pictured above, has bought the vacant shop on the corner of Cross Street previously occupied by the Blazing Saddles Gift Shop.
He told Burnham-On-Sea.com on Friday that the new shop – to be called DP Menswear – will focus solely on quality, classical menswear in the mid-to-upper price range.
“We’ll have a wide range of quality suits, ties, shirts, socks and knitwear from the UK’s top brands,” he said.
The Burnham man – who lives near the town’s BASC Ground and previously worked at Brean Leisure Park – is spending almost £5,000 on renovating the premises.
He’s also applied for planning permission to make big alterations to the outside of the shop.
“Shoppers in Burnham have been waiting for a quality menswear outlet for a long time. We hope to open in the High Street during June.”
