That's right tilly. This looking up photo was taken at the top of the escalator near the Holland and Barrett store. I liked the eye shape of this toughened glass feature. I had a long very good chat with very helpful centre staff members and among the things they said I was told it is meant to be eye-shaped and will be lit up in various colours to be even more visually good when looking down onto it.

Hi tillyNo cat let out of the bag at all. What & Where are there to be answered (or guessed). Letting the cat out of the bag is a funny expression. The area where I took the photo has never been closed but the Holland & Barrett shop has been mostly isolated for some time. It was the shape of the item that caught my eye as it had not been visible even a couple of days or so before when I was there. Interestingly (or not!) when I was passing through early p.m. today the up escalator there was not working due to a problem!
