Yep the local Focus in Cambridge is a bit of a morgue which is a shame

You're assuming that they own the site and building, which is unlikely.
If the value of the sites was more than the going concern value I would
have expected the current owner to have closed down loss-making stores
and sold off the site themselves rather than selling the whole lot on.
