Bristol shopping centre dubbed 'saddest in the UK' after years of neglect

A deserted Bristol shopping centre has been called the 'saddest in the UK'. A recent report from The Sun suggested that St Catherine's Place, in Bedminster, is a 'ghost town'.

It comes after Bristol Live reported that the South Bristol shopping centre has seen a long and slow decline over the past decade or two. After Iceland closed at the start of March this year, only Farm Foods remains in the shopping centre located on East Street.

St Catherine's Place used to be home to outlets such as The Works, Shoe Zone and the British Heart Foundation. There was also an independent florist and café.
