🛍️ Clarendon Shopping Centre

The Clarendon Centre was a shopping centre in central Oxford, England, opened in 1984. The centre faced Cornmarket Street, and had other entrances onto Queen Street and Shoe Lane. The fascia onto Cornmarket Street was that of the Woolworths store which had, in a decision later criticised, replaced the Georgian Clarendon Hotel; it was discovered during demolition that medieval construction had been present within the hotel. The shopping centre was expanded in 2012–14, after which major tenants included TK Maxx, H&M and Gap Outlet. In 2025 the centre closed for redevelopment, and as of 2026 the site is being redeveloped.
