The Brunswick Shopping Centre, with over 30 shops, is in the centre of Scarborough, North Yorkshire, England. It was built on the site of a former Debenhams store, which is still an anchor tenant. It has an annual footfall of approximately 7 million people. [1]
Architecture
The design for the building, including its bow front, is influenced by the period architecture of Scarborough. The Brunswick Centre is a modern enclosed two-level building with a Debenhams store, Argos, New Look, and 28 other shops.[2]
Bathing Belle statue
In 2002 Scarborough Civic Society commissioned Sunderland artist, Craig Knowles, to create two sculptures for the town at a cost of £40,000. One of these, The Bathing Belle, was installed on a plinth outside the centre in April 2008. The cost of the statue was met through a mixture of grants, donations from businesses and private subscriptions.[3][4]
