Visitors to Welsh high streets are on the up, according to the latest figures.
The study by the Welsh Retail Consortium found footfall in Wales increased by 1.7% in July, which was better than the 0.9% rise in June.
But it wasn't all good news with the shop vacancy rate rising to 11.9% from 11.0% in April.

Some experts have blamed the recent rise in shop vacancies on the EU referendum claiming economic uncertainty of the last quarter may have deterred some retailers from taking on a lease.
