A Wiltshire town’s last dedicated nightclub looks set to be auctioned off after its closure earlier this year.
Club E11evn, at The Bridge in Chippenham, closed its doors for the final time in February citing “rising operational costs” and a decline in the success of the nightlife industry.
The building, which hosted clubbers for two decades, has sat empty since then with no clear indication of what its future may hold.
Last month, Gemini Kitchens took possession of the property and warned anyone who accessed the former club without the landlord’s permission would be committing a criminal offence.
Signs have since been erected at the building indicating it is now being marketed by Strakers ahead of auction, although the firm’s next auction catalogue is yet to be released.

The management of E11evn said goodbye to the town in February “with a heavy heart.”
They added: “It is with a heavy heart that we announce the closure of Club E11evn, a late-night venue that has served as a cornerstone of nightlife in Chippenham for two decades.
“Saturday, February 1 marks the final night for E11evn, a decision driven by rising operational costs and a decline in the late-night economy within Chippenham.
“Thank you for being a part of our journey. You will always have a place in the story of E11evn.”
