A high street Costa Coffee is to close after more than a decade of trading.
Bosses at the chain have announced the New Romney outlet is to shut on October 31.

The branch trades between the Pilgrims Hospice and Town Hall House building.
Its closure will leave Romney Marsh residents without any Costa branches – although machines serving the brand are available in some petrol stations and shops.
The store opened in June 2016, replacing the 650-year-old pub known as the New Inn in what is one of the town’s oldest buildings.
The boozer, which opened in 1381, served its last pint in September 2015 after the owners gave the tenant, Caroline Carruthers, notice to quit.
Costa, which is owned by Coca-Cola, runs its outlets through a franchise system but under the Costa brand.
The company declined to comment when asked by KentOnline why the store is closing.
