AN INTERNATIONAL outdoor clothing retailer will be opening a store in Barnsley town centre this Autumn.

Trespass is moving into a new 2,000 sq ft unit within The Glass Works – between Flannels and Dolly’s Desserts.

Lisa Brooks, Area Manager at Trespass said, “We’re delighted to be coming to The Glass Works, Barnsley. This is the latest opening in our expansion across the UK. We know the people of Barnsley love the outdoors and we know they also appreciate the mix of style, quality and good value that Trespass will bring. With Autumn weather upon us, our latest store opening at The Glass Works couldn’t be more timely.”

Coun Robin Franklin, Cabinet Spokesperson for Regeneration and Culture at Barnsley Council, said: “Trespass is a very popular outdoor clothing brand, and we’re looking forward to welcoming its new store to our town centre this Autumn.

“One of the key reasons is that the outlet – and the active lifestyle the company encourages – will also support all we hope to achieve with our upcoming expanded Active Travel Hub.

“When Barnsley communities are opting for active travel – walking and cycling as part of their daily lives – this not only positively contributes to their physical and mental wellbeing, but it helps to foster a greater appreciation for our fantastic borough and the many green spaces it has.

“If people want to explore the stunning countryside we have on our doorstep, they can get everything they need in the town centre – from clothing to bike hire – making the great outdoors more accessible to everyone.”

There are now 31 tenants located within The Glass Works covering retail, leisure, hospitality and health sectors, plus the thriving Barnsley Market and Market Kitchen food hall.
