The Parishes is a central shopping destination in Scunthorpe, combining retail, leisure, and community spaces. Built on the site of the old bus station, it features a mix of national chains and local businesses across a pedestrian-friendly layout.
Retailers include H&M, Wilko, Home Bargains, Clarks, Costa, and Fulton Foods, alongside independent outlets and services. The centre also houses a 7-screen Vue Cinema and connects directly to St John’s Market via a covered walkway.
Seasonal promotions, pop-up stalls, and community events are regularly hosted, and the centre is adjacent to Church Square, which is undergoing transformation into an urban park.
