THE opening date of three major stores in Largs town centre has been revealed with new posters.
The posters were put up in the window of the former M&Co building on Main Street, which closed in April last year.
The material confirms that the Edinburgh Woollen Mill, Peacocks and BonMarché will be opening their doors on November 21.
Planning permission for new signage for all three stores was submitted to North Ayrshire Council in June this year.

Both Edinburgh Woollen Mill and BonMarché are currently looking to hire staff to join their team ahead of the big opening.
North Coast independent councillor Ian Murdoch said: "We were all disappointed that it was lying empty for so long. However, it could have been a lot longer.
"It is very difficult to get these deals through. I am delighted to see that somebody has taken over this building and they have now started the refurbishment of it.
"The new owners have announced an opening date so I don't know how more definite it can be that it is actually happening.
"Everybody has been waiting to see that building back in use with retail provisions within Largs town centre."
Edinburgh Woollen Mill, Peacocks and BonMarché have been approached for comment.
