Property description

SITUATION First opened in the mid-1950s, Princesshay is said to have been the first pedestrianized shopping street in the country. It replaced the area known as Bedford Circus which included the Eastgate Arcade, which was levelled by the City Council following damage in the Baedeker Raids of 1942. Redesigned and re-opened in September 2007, Princesshay has enjoyed great success and won many prestigious awards including the British Council of Shopping Centres "Supreme Gold Award" in 2007, Retail Week's "Shopping location of the year" in 2008, and the International Council of Shopping Centres "Best Medium Sized Shopping Centre in Europe" in 2008. Today Princesshay continues to include and draw many of the best in "high street" brands; most recently to arrive are John Lewis & Hollister. There are also many more shops, bars and eateries around the breathtaking Exeter Cathedral in Cathedral Yard and further afield throughout the city. Other visual pleasures include Gandy St, Royal Albert Memorial Museum and the historic Quay.
