Bottle Lane links Bridlesmith Gate (behind the camera) to Warser Gate and Fletcher Gate. On the right are part of the shops and Hotel Ibis, built 2006-8. Elain Harwood, in the Pevsner Architectural Guide to the city, describes the development as "a largely glazed grid (smart and Swiss-like) at the base, but with larger retro-Modern blocks superimposed for the hotel and roof garden."
