The desire path emerges to solve a problem of movement and identity from one of the main pedestrian entries into Shrewsbury, Frankwell Car Park, through an almost vacant shopping centre and into the High Street. This is a site which has no remaining historical elements, except for an insecure passage which has been hidden between the shopping centre walls; the 70 steps. To solve this journey, I carved a straight route through the Darwin and Riverside shopping centres which not only aims to guide the visitor to the town centre but to bring back a sense of place to the site by revealing this historical passage.
