Described as the 'Hatton Garden of Scotland', the Argyle Arcade is home to a large collection of jewellery shops. The arcade was built in 1827 and was designed by John Baird; it is now grade 'A' listed. It is seen here from the Argyle Street entrance; it forms an 'L' shape opening out at the other end on Buchanan Street.
