Built to a design by Wild, Collins and Wild in 1893, the arcade presents a theatrical facade to Yorkshire Street. Note the representation of Victorian politicians William Gladstone and Benjamin Disraeli within the wrought iron entrance. They are looking away from each other because each held the other in contempt.
Why not research why Gladstone and Disraeli disagreed about politics?
