What was once Bury Street has been re-named Abbey Shopping Centre - and exciting things are happening! We've already signed up WHSmith and Cargo as new recruits for the development - and more are planned in 2010.
This website is designed to give you a flavour of what Abbey has to offer - as well as providing links to partners in and around Abingdon with whom we're working to improve the overall shopping and visitor experience in Abingdon. We hope you like it. It is another step in the right direction - and every journey begins with one step. We'd really appreciate your feedback - so let us know.
Sir Terry Wogan receives a £250 donation to BBC Children in Need on his visit to The Book Store in Abbey Shopping Centre.
The Radio 2 presenter was in Abingdon to sign copies of his new book 'Where Was I?'. Simon Baldwin presented the Togmeister with a cheque on behalf of the shopping centre. Sir Terry was delighted to receive the cheque and said it was an "extremely kind and generous gesture". He said a big thank you to Abbey Shopping Centre for the donation - and to the hundreds of people who came to the book signing. The Book Store also donated £1 from every copy sold to the BBC charity.
