History
It was the first experiment in this style of shopping experience in the UK when it opened in 1976 and was initially constructed in an I shape parallel to the North Circular, with the two largest stores being placed at each end. Subsequent expansion starting in 1995 saw the open parking areas to the north replaced by further shops and multi-storey parking giving the present inverted T shape. Although small by the standards of more recent shopping complexes such as Meadowhall, Bluewater and the Metro Centre in Gateshead it suffers from site area limitations having been built within the conurbation rather than out-of-town. The centre became a 'No Smoking' area on 1 January 2002. Meadowhall is a large shopping centre located three miles northeast of central Sheffield, England. ...

Transport The nearest London Underground station is on the Northern Line and was renamed from Brent to Brent Cross tube station when the centre opened. The station is about a 10 minute walk from Brent Cross shopping centre, however the shopping centre is possibly equidistant from Hendon Central station. Neither tube station is a particularly easy walk from the shopping centre, however, due to the number of motorways and A-roads intersecting in the area. Despite their names, neither the tube station nor the shopping centre are located in the London Borough of Brent. For other uses, see Northern Line (disambiguation). ...
