About Anglia Square, Norwich
Anglia Square is a purpose-built shopping centre dating from 1968, located on Magdalen Street in Norwich's city centre. It's a striking example of brutalist architecture with an iconic pyramidal glass roof. The centre houses a mix of independent shops and local retailers, alongside cafes and market stalls on the ground floor.
The building has become a recognisable landmark in Norwich's urban landscape, particularly noticeable from various vantage points around the city. Inside, you'll find a range of independent traders selling everything from vintage clothing to handmade crafts, books, and gifts. The ground floor remains a social hub with regular food traders and a relaxed atmosphere. Recent regeneration efforts have updated the space while preserving its character as a destination for independent shopping.
