Breaking news: Marks & Spencer has been granted permission by the High Court to demolish its flagship store on Oxford Street, quashing the government’s refusal of planning permission for a new shop.
The High Court ruled that the rejection of Marks & Spencer’s demolition plans by the UK’s levelling up secretary Michael Gove was unlawful, the UK retailer has revealed on X.
This victory means Marks & Spencer can move ahead with its plans to replace the art deco building with a new store designed by architecture studio Pilbrow & Partners.
