Ive heard from a neighboring shopkeeper that the company has been changing hands within the family quite a few times in the last year in order to resolve some large unpaid tax bills...

I did wonder as there didn't seem to be much warning!

Big shame. They were quintessentially Hertford.

I see in the Mercury this week that they are in the hands of liquidators so that explains it!

I think I noticed The Refectory seemed to have a different name over it, looks like it is going to be a gift shop. There is a notice on the window of Martins and in the Mercury there is an application for a sanwich bar at 14 The Wash which I am sure is that unit as The Bouquet and Blossoms are 10 / 12.

I suspect it's the new empty unit between Martins and the florists

Martins other half is trying to turn itself into a sandwich bar and The Refectory has turned into what looks like a watered down version of itself. Give them time though. I like to see new enterprises succeed.
