Cheshire Oaks confirms opening hours and plans for bank holiday Monday

Cheshire Oaks has confirmed its opening hours for this coming bank holiday.

There will be a bank holiday this Monday, September 19 in honour of the Queen's funeral. Queen Elizabeth II died, aged 96, at Balmoral Castle on Thursday, September 8. She was Britain's longest reigning monarch.

Two day's after the Queen's death, the nation's new monarch, King Charles III, was formally declared head of state in a historic ceremony, which was televised for the first time. The new King approved the bank holiday.

A number of supermarkets, stores and other businesses will be shutting up shop on Monday, to allow staff to mark the occasion in their own way. Cheshire Oaks has confirmed it will join businesses closing up and down the country by shutting all 145 of its stores and reopening on Tuesday, September 20.

In a statement, a Cheshire Oaks spokesperson said: "Following the sad news that Queen Elizabeth II has passed away, we are joining the nation in mourning as we close our UK centres on Monday, September 19th, the day of Her Majesty's funeral. The Cheshire Oaks Centre will resume normal trading hours on Tuesday, September 20th."

Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet is based in Ellesmere Port, Cheshire. It was the first designer outlet village to open in Europe, back in 1995.
