Title: Nottingham night out
Post by: Marks DTM Calib on 11 October 2006, 09:29:18
A good time had by all I think.

Had a long tour of the man made caves under the bell pub in Market square including the very large set which are very rarely seen and pass under the neighbouring building society and adjacent street.

In here were 100 year old bottles, Tax tally's etc etc.....very interesting.

And good to meet everybody to.

Sounds good Mark. I've been to Nottingham a few times (friend lives there) and always had a great time, but never got around to going to the Bell and seeing the caves :-[

Maybe next time ;)

The cave tour is special invite only (enquire through the web site) but, I know the landlord.

Indeed it was, thanks Mark.  :y

I’ve been frequenting The Bell for more than 20 years but never realised it was quite the iceberg.
