Great Western Arcade, Birmingham

An ornate Victorian arcade which was build over the original Snow Hill to London railway line. It is near to the business area of the city centre and now houses a number of mostly independent and upmarket shops.
A beautiful piece of architecture! I love the window embedded in the archway and the vaulted ceiling especially! Fav

@365projectorgheatherb Thanks Heather. I believe the original roof was all glass but the arcade was heavily bombed in war and the roof and the entrance at the other end had to be replaced.

@tinley23 Thanks, Lesley. I'm amazed with rebuilds like this after such destruction!
