[2] The airy South Mall leading north is sheltered by a translucent roof and lined with a mix of shops.

The Market Square is a covered area (originally open to the elements) lit by clerestory windows.

The North Mall is treated differently, in the harder spirit of the late 1960s: a concrete coffered roof alternates with open light-wells, and ends in an open square, with two levels of shops and two stories of flats above; brutalistic, dark brick and shuttered concrete.

The backdrop rising from the deck above North Mall is composed of huge slabs of system-built flats which the borough built so keenly at the time.
