Built on the site of The Plough, an

old Coaching Inn, the Regent Arcade

was opened in the Spring of 1985 by

HRH The Princess Anne, only daughter

of Queen Elizabeth 11.

CHILD'S VIEW. "It looks very big from

the entrance but it is not really that

big inside. My dad is an architect, he

has been working on the plan for eight

years. It took three years to build.

There are lots of clothes and card

shops. There is a very shiny, slippery

marble floor. There are mirrors

everywhere, even on the umbrella like

tops over the seats. There is a glass

lift which gives a good view of the

Arcade. There is a multi-storey car

park with six or seven levels. You are

dizzy by the time you get to the level

you want. A sign near the entrance

shows where the first jet plane was

built forty years ago".
