A GREGGS store in Darlington town centre has been forced to close due to unforeseen circumstances.

The shop on Northgate had a sign outside this morning saying it had been forced to close.

A staff member said she arrived at 7.30am and discovered the ovens in the shop weren't working, and the decision was made to close.

The Northern Echo has contacted Greggs' head office for more information.

Don't worry though, the store also has outlets at Skinnergate, High Row and the Cornmill.
