Debenhams Department Store
Debenhams Department Store in Swindon was opened in 1968, originally as Bon Marche, but in the following years was eventually succeded by Debenhams. The store is unique as it also has offices above it, which closed in 1999. Debenhams eventually closed in May 2020, and has been abandoned ever since. There have recently been plans to redevelop the space into a self storage facility, but these plans haven't gone ahead yet.
The Ground floor, where most of the product shelves are still standing.
Costa Coffee, which was also on the Ground floor.
The Cafeteria on the First floor.
Shelves.
TravelMoney and a Click & Collect desk on the First floor.
Escalators on the First floor.
Shelves.
Lift area on the Second floor.
Another angle of the lift area.
Break Room.
Stock area.
Toilets
Staircase.
The Main entrance on the Ground floor, covered up by various advertisements for the Town Centre.
And that's basically it, this place was really cool to explore, I had explored it before back in 2021, and it was interesting to see how it's mostly stayed the same since then, although the outside of the building has seen better days.
