Dalton Road entrance to Portland Walk in 2012

Portland Walk is a shopping centre in Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria, England. Constructed in 1998 on the site of the former Forshaw Street, it was designed as a modern extension to Dalton Road; Barrow's principal shopping district. Barrow Indoor Market is also located adjacent to the southern entrance of the centre.[1] Portland Walk has a total retail floor area of around 200,000 sq ft (19,000 m2) and contains over 30 stores and services.[2] The complex is entirely open-air, however, there has been unsuccessful proposals to cover it with a roof.[3] A 500-space multi-storey car park provides direct access to the centre.

Portland Walk is anchored by one department store – Debenhams. Although every building within consists of two storeys, only Debenhams, River Island, Topshop, Topman and Waterstones use both levels as sales floor space.[citation needed] Amongst other national retailers with a presence in Portland Walk are Boots, The Body Shop, Clarks, EE, Game, Goldsmiths, JD Sports, The Officers Club, Pandora and Thorntons.
