    Shop horror: Are Britain’s high streets dying?
    Nov 29 2024
    • Get 20% off annual Patreon support for The Bunker in our Black Friday sale. The perfect gift to ask for! Britain's high streets are shadows of their former selves. Over the last decade, 40,000 shops have closed. But in the past high streets were more than places to shop – they were the heart of communities, hubs for activism, and even spots for a bit of drama to unfold. Today on The Bunker, Alex von Tunzelmann sits down with Annie Gray, author of The Bookshop, The Draper, The Candlestick Maker: A History of the High Street, to delve into the rich past of these spaces – and why we shouldn’t rush to mourn them just yet. • We are sponsored by Indeed.
