Barbican, Historic waterfront district in Plymouth, England
The Barbican district extends along the western and northern sides of Sutton Harbour, featuring narrow cobblestone streets and traditional warehouses from different periods.
During World War II, the Barbican district maintained most of its original architecture while other parts of Plymouth experienced substantial damage from bombing raids.
The district contains the Barbican Theatre, numerous art galleries, and specialized shops that reflect the maritime traditions of Plymouth through exhibitions and performances.
Visitors can reach multiple attractions within walking distance, including the Plymouth Gin Distillery, National Marine Aquarium, and Elizabethan House museum.
The district maintains one of Britain's largest collections of cobbled streets with approximately 100 listed buildings showing different architectural periods.
