A former sweet shop in Edinburgh city centre is set to become a Mountain Warehouse outlet.
Kingdom of Sweets, which sold imported treats and once hit headlines for selling a £10 bag of crisps, closed down on Princes Street last year. Now, the premises it left behind is set to be occupied by the outdoor retailer, which already has a shop just a few blocks away.

It already has three branches in the Capital, including one on High Street and another at the Fort Kinnaird Retail Park.
A spokeswoman for the chain said: "We can confirm we will be opening a new store at 85 Princes Street." She added that there were 'no further details' available on the move at this time.
