Description

The Great Western Arcade is an important part of the City of Birmingham's Victorian heritage. Built in 1876, to a design influenced by the Great Exhibition at London's Crystal Palace in 1851, the Arcade spans a tunnel created for the railway line between Snow Hill and Moor Street Stations.

It was voted Birmingham's favourite building in 1988, major restoration work took place in 1984 and further refurbishment in 1998, to ensure that the Victorian Splendour of the Arcade is preserved.

It has 42 units of independent shops and upmarket speciality retailers as well as high street names.
