Wasn’t even born yet and I used to love going up there in the early 000’s it’s just not the same anyone. My moms worked for M&S in Merry Hill since the day it opened.

The advertising boards by the road saying ‘the waterfront’ are actually still there! Yes sections have fallen away but a handful and sections still remain last time I looked

Your information is wrong, this is the construction of the "Waterfront" Complex above Merry Hill, the actual centre itself was built by the time this was filmed.
