The stores are part of 58 closing this year amid a huge restructuring plan to save the troubled chain.
Poundland was saved from collapse after the High Court approved a restructuring plan days before the company was due to run out of money.
Poundland, which employs 14,700 staff and runs 800 stores, has struggled financially in recent years.
Its new owners, Gordon Brothers, who bought the chain for £1 in June, laid out plans to invest £90million to rescue the business.
Their rescue plan, approved by the High Court, involves tough decisions, including the closure of 68 stores, cutting 1,000 jobs, and shutting two warehouses, which will affect 350 workers.
Here is the full list of the six stores closing on September 28:
- West Street, Havant, Hampshire
- High Street, Newport, Shropshire,
- Dumbarton Road, Glasgow,
- Church Street, Ripley, Derbyshire
- Swanley Shopping Centre, London Road, Swanley, Kent
- Dovefield Retail Park, Town Meadows Way, Uttoxeter,
