10 Points of Interest & Landmarks in Nottingham That You Shouldn't Miss

October 1, 2021 Hector Krause

This town in the very center of England is perhaps best known for its association with the legend of Robin Hood. The men in tights are long gone, though—today, you’ll find a modern city with a fantastic playhouse, ice hockey arena, and many, many shops and clubs.

Holme Pierrepont Hall

The earliest built brick building in the county. Built by Sir William Pierrepont in 1500 and still lived in by his descendants, the house surrounds a Courtyard Garden of 1875 possibly influenced by Nesfield on three sides with the local Parish Church of St Edmund on the fourth.The East Garden which was laid out in 1973 has a winter flower garden full of snowdrops, aconites, daffodils and hellebores among other plants. The wild Tulipa Sylvestris which has been here since the 17th century flowers in the park.The house has family portraits and regional furniture and welcomes groups on guided tours throughout the year. The house is also available for weddings, meetings, seminars and other such events.

Green's Windmill

Green's Windmill is a restored 19th Century tower mill, once home to mathematical physicist George Green. Turning again since 1986, climb to the top of our windmill and see how our sails turn grain into flour. In our interactive Science Centre discover the remarkable story of George Green, and experiment with light, electricity and magnetism. There's something for all the family!

This may be small, but between the science centre and the windmill itself, it kept my two boys (8 and 4) happy for a couple of hours. We paid a couple of pounds for the age-targeted treasure hunts which they each enjoyed completing. I found it really interesting too, George Green is the most influential mathematician you've never heard of and I loved climbing up through the working mill - how often do you get the opportunity to see a traditional mill grinding flour? Really impressive. Excellent value for money - and there is a big children's playground on the same site so they can go for a run around and a leg stretch afterwards.

Old Market Square

Reviewed By Chris79nottm - Nottingham, United Kingdom

The market square in Nottingham is a great central venue and an iconic landmark. The venue of the Nottingham city council house - this is a great venue to reach by train, tram, car, bike, walk and even get to direct from east Midlands airport. It's a typical and safe meeting place for groups, couples or a good spot for single people to people watch! With plenty of activities on throughout the year and a great selection of bars, restaurants and shops it caters for everyone throughout the year. Located half way between the Victoria Intu and Broadmarsh Intu shopping centres and a short walk from the Nottingham Cornerhouse, it's a central and integral part of the city. You can even get married in the council house! A great place to take time out no matter what you are doing in Nottingham.
