Rickmansworth's TGJones store is set to close next month, as the high street giant continues its cost-cutting measures.
The branch in High Street is one of around 150 being axed and the Watford Observer understands its final day of trading will be on October 17.
A spokesperson for TGJones - better known as WHSmith prior to a divisive rebrand - said: "As we work to secure the long-term future of TGJones, we have confirmed that our Rickmansworth store will close.
"We know this will be disappointing news for our colleagues, customers, and the local community. Our focus now is on supporting those affected and continuing to serve customers throughout the closure period.
"We would like to thank all of our colleagues for their commitment and the contribution they have made to TGJones."

It comes just days after news that the branch inside Watford's Harlequin shopping centre will be closing in January.
The struggling firm is closing stores as part of restructuring plans the company said were necessary after the last 12 months of "highly challenging trading conditions".
Chief executive officer Alex Wilson said: "These decisions follow a detailed review of store performance and long-term sustainability, and they have not been taken lightly."
The WHSmith outlet at Watford Junction station is not at risk of closure and continues to bear the historic name. This is because the chain's travel outlets in train stations and airports were not part of the deal which saw 480 retail stores purchased by Modella Capital last year.
