It added: "After almost 60 years of trade From Stangers, to Percy Priors and finally us here at Music Room. 5 Catherine street will no longer be a music shop.

"We have been so proud to be the place where you have all come at one point or another along your musical journeys."

The company went on to say that everyone in the store is "heart broken" that it won’t be here for the future of music in Salisbury.
