Re: history of out of town shopping centres
 I think it would help you a great deal if you got a copy of the coursework guidance provided by the exam board. You also need a copy of the mark scheme. Both of these will give you quite a bit of guidance as to how you can score marks in the assessment. Most exam boards now put this sort of detail on their web sites, often in the subject specification.

You should also be able to find some information in any general/human A level geography text book. This may not include the detailed information that you want, but if there are references or a bibliography listed you may be able to follow these up. Searching on the Internet doesn't give any obvious resources. If you try a search using "out of town" (including the inverted commas) and shopping, or retail, in Google, you get some useful articles for comparison. You may want to restrict this to UK results. These would be of mopre use as comparison case studies rather than the general history that you are looking for.

Hope this is of some help.
