The nearest shopping centre to Ochre Yards and the Railway Quarter, up the hill in the town centre. It opened in 2013, built by Spenhill, Tesco’s development arm, around a Tesco Extra, with a Vue cinema, a health centre, shops and student accommodation.

It replaced the first Trinity Square, a 1967 shopping and leisure complex whose brutalist multi-storey car park, designed by Rodney Gordon of the Owen Luder Partnership, starred in the 1971 film Get Carter. The old centre was demolished between July and October 2010.

The pin is approximate, at the Tesco end of the centre.
