A local shopping centre which still has a respectable variety of shops. Not many of the shops actually open on Sundays which is why it looks a bit deserted. The wide pavements mean that shopping is more relaxed than in many areas. Although historically much of this area belonged to the frontagers, the local Gedling Borough Council has modernised the paving and introduced trees and benches. Some businesses still extend onto the frontage either to display their wares or for alfresco refreshments.
