A well-known charity is reopening its city centre branch five months later than orginally planned, replacing a menswear retailer.
Oxfam is opening at 1-2 The Broadway, St Peters Street with a new-look store - finally completing the move from its previous home on Chequer Street.
The unit formerly hosted high-end menswear shop, Moss Bros., which closed earlier this year.
Despite a lack of Oxfam branding in the signage - it is still Moss Bros. - Oxfam items and decorations can be seen through the shop window.
A sign on the door reads: "OPEN FRIDAY, CHRISTMAS IS COMING" - suggesting the store will be launching November 22.
The store is stocking plenty of festive items with stockings and other Christmas-themed nick knacks on display.

When its original city centre location shut in July, a spokesperson for Oxfam said: "This shop is temporarily closed.
"We are sorry that we are now closed but we are planning to re-open in new premises in the summer."
Five months on from its promised reopening date, the shop will be hitting the high street.
The charity now owns three branches across the city including a book store on Catherine Street and another shop on Hatfield Road.
