Wooliesgirl 1 Posted June 25, 2017 Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 Hi Can anyone remember where Browns Subway was please? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,457 Posted June 25, 2017 Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 Never heard of it. Was it a pedestrian subway under roads in the city centre ? And why was it called Brown's subway - presumably something nearby ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
katyjay 5,090 Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 There is a reference to it on a graffiti website, showing the graffiti in Nottingham's well-known Brown's subway. But it doesn't say where it is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Either top of Chapel bar under Parliament st. to the Coop Or under Maid Marion way to Mount st bus station Quote Link to post Share on other sites

radfordred 6,284 Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 About 15 years ago I swam the length of that subway in my overalls & toe cap boots for a bet the water was about a foot from the roof, there was some very clever graffiti under there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Brown's isn't there now, it was demolished several years ago and a new building is in its place, but the location fits. A gloomy, long subway under the multi-level flyover. We'll have to wait for Wooliesgirl to come back and tell us if that's the one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
