A family-owned business in Crystal Palace is set to close after 20 years.

South of the River announced over Facebook that come January of next year, the store would cease to operate.

"To all our fab customers old and new, we would like to let you know that our lease is coming to an end at our Crystal Palace store and we will be closing our doors there for the final time in January 2018 after 20 happy years," the Facebook post said.

People were quick to wish the business farewell.

"Will miss you a lot, one of my fave shops on the triangle," one person said.

"Sorry to hear this, have always loved your shop - thanks for all the sparkles you’ve brought to Crystal Palace," another said.

It's not all bad news though.

The Beckenham store will remain open, much to the relief of customers.

"Such a shame but will keep coming to Beckenham store as love everything you sell," a commenter said.
