A new branch of a national optician chain will open in a supermarket next month.

Specsavers is to open a shop in the Sainsbury's store on the Warren Retail Park in Ashford on Monday, October 22.

The manager of the brand's existing store in County Square will also run the supermarket site, which is already under construction.

A launch party is expected to take place, with more details of the event expected nearer the opening.

The County Square store will remain open.

In June, Argos left the town centre and moved to the supermarket after it was bought by Sainsbury's in 2016 for £1.4 billion.
