  2. Nottingham pubs you really miss

    I'm rather surprised that no-one's mentioned the "other" pub on that route, Craig, the Elm Tree hotel. Now an old folks home but it was a very popular night-spot up till the mid80's, had my stag night there back in 1984. If the Southwell lot and the Lowdham lot were both in there a scrap was guaranteed, a prime reason for its demise.

    Further up the river, the Star and Garter at Hazelford Ferry has suffered the same fate as the Elm Tree, another "God's Waiting Room". That was a popular bikers' venue for a short while.

    The Elm Tree at Hoveringham is a private residence not an old peoples home.
