Pillars thrusting upwards, waves of tessellated roofing, light, shape colour and overwhelming detail: words that might describe the architecture of a religious cathedral. But this is the Retail Cathedral in Shepherds Bush in West London. The central area is decked out with Christmas lights - sorry, Festive lights - and currently clear, awaiting the seasonal spectaculars.
Westfield London first opened in 2008, it is one of the largest shopping centres in Europe in terms of retail floor space.
