Visited just after Christmas and New Year. Very quiet as most of the shops unfortunately were closed or closed down. Lovely little avenue of shops to browse, plenty of potential. General concensus from talking to shop staff was that footfall had fallen.

Althought about 50% of it was empty, the other half was wonderful. There was a few stalls called "The fire within". The fire within was the highlight of my visit. The entirety of the fire within made me giggle with glee. Great place, great shops. Hope to got here again

Its a very soulless place,I only went to Pandora shop otherwise I wouldn't have gone in for anything else.
