PW Sears newsagent in Norwich's Golden Triangle is being refurbished after its owners of 53 years retired in July.

PW Sears newsagent on Unthank Road in Norwich's Golden Triangle is being refurbished after Peter and Barbara Sears retired at the end of July following 53 years running the business. New owner Rajasingam Kajanthan, who also owns a convenience store on Woodcock Road near Mile Cross, began renovations this week. Builders have been ripping out the shop's interior, with a large green shipping container currently positioned in front of the site.

Peter Sears followed in his father's footsteps, who also worked at a wholesaler supplying papers locally. Alan Crouch, 69, who assisted at the store after joining in 2007, also retired. Despite "feeling sad" about retiring, Peter Sears pledged to continue visiting the store to assist Kajanthan with the reopening.
