Arndale Centre

Arndale Centres were the first "American style" malls to be built in the United Kingdom. In total, 23 Arndales have been built in the United Kingdom, and three in Australia. The first opened in Jarrow, County Durham, in 1961, as a pedestrianised shopping area.  Many had  high rise tower blocks built on top of the mall.

The Arndale Property Trust was started in 1950 and closed in 2012.
