This shopping arcade is Grade 2 listed. It dates back to 1898. The design is typically Victorian, with a domed glass roof, supported by decorative iron work, with some stained glass windows and mahogany shop fronts that have been virtually unaltered since the day the arcade opened. There are at least thirty shops which are spread over two floors in the arcade. The upper shopping level features balconies that stretch the majority of the building's length, which can be accessed from three staircases in the arcade.
