The Corridor Bath lit up for Christmas

The Corridor is one of the world's earliest retail arcades, designed by architect Henry Goodridge and built in 1825, in Bath, Somerset, England. On Tuesday 10 December 1974, a telephone warning alerted police in Bath that a bomb was shortly to explode in The Corridor. The subsequent blast from a 5 lb bomb planted by the IRA[3] caused huge damage and forced the Corridor to undergo a major renovation programme. No one was hurt in the blast.
