Description

A Grade II listed Neo Classical thermal baths, Cavendish Shopping Arcade was constructed in the early nineteenth century and gathers together the finest independent retailers including clothing, beauty
products, homewares, gifts, books, chocolatier and eco-friendly goods.
The building was converted to retail units in 1987 and was the subject
of a further major refurbishment in 2002. Over the following years the
property has been continually maintained and upgraded.

The property is constructed of sandstone blockwork, the shopping
experience is crowned by the stunning stained-glass, barrel-vaulted
roof, designed by painter and artist Brian Clarke.

The Hot Baths were totally rebuilt during 1852/53 to the design of
Henry Currey, the 6th Duke of Devonshire's architect. They were
largely enveloped in an iron and glass structure with a colonnade
running along the front, extending the sheltered promenade that ran
along the frontage of the Crescent and the side of the Natural Baths.
The design has affinities with the Crystal Palace in London and the
Great Conservatory at Chatsworth, both designed by Joseph Paxton

The spa town of Buxton is situated within the County of Derbyshire and is known as the
gateway to the Peak District National Park. The town is situated 20 miles south east of
Manchester, 13 miles east of Macclesfield and 24 miles west of Chesterfield.
Buxton is an extraordinary town, combining an unusually fine mix of buildings, parks and
public spaces. It serves a relatively wide rural catchment area and is situated on the main
A6 north/south arterial route. Buxton also has a railway station, which connects directly
with Manchester and the West Coast Mainline at Stockport. There are 24 trains between
Buxton and Manchester every day.
The property is located in a prominent position in Buxton town centre, between Spring
Gardens shopping area and Pavillion Gardens. Forming part of the Quadrant, the
development provides a cosmopolitan mix of quality independent and branded shops,
restaurants and bars.
The Arcade benefits from significant frontage to Terrace Road (A515) and is opposite the
prime retail area of Spring Gardens and its associated Spring Gardens Shopping Centre,
which is anchored by Waitrose, Next, WHSmith and Superdrug
