Emlyn Hughes House is a landmark four-story office building located at the intersection of

Barrow Borough Council. There was much speculation that the development would become a 'white elephant
' because a year after completion in 2008 the whole building remained vacant.

In April 2012, Glasgow-based Barrhead Travel opened its first office in England at Emlyn Hughes House. Barrhead Travel created offices and a call center for their Cruise Direct business as well as a retail shop at the ground floor level. In 2019 Furness Building Society relocated its headquarters to within the building.
