Crowds await 1995 Grafton Centre reopening in Cambridge

Archive footage shows hundreds of people queueing to take a look inside a redeveloped shopping complex.

The Grafton Centre in Cambridge reopened in 1995 after it was expanded to include more shops, a food court and an eight-screen cinema.

The mall was originally opened in 1984 by Queen Elizabeth II.

Its current owners have announced plans to convert it into office and lab space for life science industries.
