Shop 'till You Drop


The Broad Marsh Centre is Nottingham's other main shopping centre. It was built in the early 1970's, with a bit of controversy, as a well liked narrow street called Drury Hill was obliterated. It was full of small shops, similar to The Shambles in York. A tiny section still remains on Low Pavement, but an escalator now replaces the hilly lane. Plans are presently being drawn up for the Broad Marsh to be rebuilt & extended, so shops will be opposite the court building, as seen in yesterday's picture, instead of the present bus station.
