Action

We’re proud to have played a key role in securing a long-term future for Jolly’s, Bath’s historic department store on Milsom Street. Since House of Fraser’s administration in 2018, we have worked closely with Bath & North East Somerset Council to find the right occupier – one that would both respect the building’s heritage and contribute to the city’s retail landscape.

Through strategic advice and market insight, we helped navigate this process, ensuring a sustainable solution for this landmark site.  

We are thrilled that Morleys has now been announced as the new tenant, who will bring Jolly’s back to life as a key part of Bath’s high street.  Set to reopen in 2026, this marks an exciting step forward in preserving and revitalising historic retail spaces.  At Hartnell Taylor Cook, we’re honoured to have supported this transformation and remain committed to helping landlords and local authorities shape sustainable, thriving retail destinations.
