November footfall slides as rain dampens shopper numbers
Retail footfall declined last month as the combination of poor weather and incoming Black Friday deterred shoppers from hitting the high street.

The monthly comparisons were worsened by this year’s later Black Friday, which fell outside the monthly trading period.
