Forty Five Records will be in the Kings Arcade, Lancaster next to Leonardini Gelato and alongside Lapel menswear.

Forty Five Records made an announcement on their Facebook page that after an eternity of searching they have found a place to call home.

A spokesman for the business said: “We’ve begun work on our record shop in Kings Arcade, King Street, Lancaster.

"Over the next few weeks we're putting together somewhere we hope seasoned vinyl collectors all the way to people who’ve never touched a record player will feel welcome.

"Whether you’re into the most underground garage track or want the latest chart topper in vinyl, we aim to have you covered.

"No egos, no judgement, just good music.

"We’ll also be stocking some products from independent artists, creators and just generally a great mix of lovely stuff to enjoy whilst listening to vinyl.

“We’ll be keeping things updated on Facebook whilst we get the shop ready and should have an opening date to share soon.

"Thank you to everyone who has supported us online already and all the people we’ve spoken to about our dream of opening a record shop and their encouragement.

"We can’t wait to open and look forward to welcoming you all soon.”
