A BUSINESS in Yate has expanded into a bigger store at the town's shopping centre. 

F.Hinds the Jewellers, a family owned and run jewellers established in 1856, has celebrated the opening of a bigger store in Yate Shopping Centre.

Previously at 17 South Walk, the store has relocated to a bigger store at 1 West Walk, and opened its doors in 1970.

The jeweller celebrated its relocation on Tuesday, March 26  welcoming new customers and familiar faces through the doors to browse the increased ranges of diamonds, jewellery, top watch brands and gifts.
