The Corridor is one of the world's earliest retail arcades, designed by architect Henry Goodridge and built in 1825, in Bath, Somerset, England.

The fashion for arranging shops in arcades arose in Paris in the late 18th Century.

[1] A musicians gallery, with a wrought iron balustrade and gilt lions heads and garlands, is in the centre of the arcade.

[2] On 9 December 1974, a telephone warning alerted police in Bath that a bomb was shortly to explode in the Corridor.

The subsequent blast at 9.10pm from a 5 lb bomb planted by the Irish Republican Army[3][4] caused huge damage and forced the Corridor to undergo a major renovation programme.
