Dating to 1670, the existing Palace is still known as Nottingham Castle. It replaced the original medieval structure, which was slighted after the Civil Wars for being a Royalist Stronghold. The current palace was itself gutted by fire during the Reform Act Riots of 1831, and transformed into the City's Art Gallery soon afterwards. It has recently reopened after a major renovation with interactive exhibitions about Robin Hood and the City's rebellious past.
On 14/07/92 T032 approaches Nottingham with the 1147 from Skegness. Sneinton crossing box is just raising it barriers, which was actually a pedestrian only crossing by this time, and was abolished in the Nottingham remodelling/resignalling scheme.
The view towards High Pavement from the church yard of St. Mary's in the Lace Market. The church, just in frame on the left is the third to occupy the site, and has stood here since the late 14th Century. It is Nottingham's largest mediaeval structure.
As seen from below but within its well manicured grounds. Here's a bit of history to put the reasonably modern building in context - news.experiencenottinghamshire.com/a-short-history-of-not...
A view towards Nottingham's Lacemarket and the Church of St Marys (Square Tower) which dates to at least 1390. It is Nottingham's Oldest church and the largest apart from the Catholic Cathedral. The church with a spire to the left dates to the 19th Century and is now a public house, The Pitcher and Piano.
The Castle, Nottingham, UK. The current building dates to the 1670's and replaced the original medieval structure which had been destroyed after the Civil Wars. The existing Castle was itself gutted by fire during the reform act riots of 1831 and now houses the City Art Gallery. It is currently closed to the public awaiting new management.
Canal Turn, now home to Cleaver & Wake and Binks Yard, was designed by Jestico + Whiles as the first completed phase of Nottingham’s Island Quarter regeneration. Opened in 2022, the three-storey, 1,782m² building occupies a prominent canalside site on the former Boots Island, an area shaped by Nottingham’s industrial, railway and canal heritage. Its red-brick elevations and repeated arched openings deliberately reference the warehouses, factories and Lace Market architecture of the city’s past, while the contemporary detailing and extensive glazing give it a distinctly modern character. The name Cleaver & Wake commemorates two Victorian lace finishers who operated from the site.
This tightly framed view turns the building’s corner into an almost ecclesiastical composition. The converging brick elevations rise to a sharp apex, while the enormous arched windows and vertical fins create a strong rhythm beneath the seemingly solid masonry. Carefully controlled light reveals the texture of the brickwork while allowing the surrounding architecture to dissolve into deep shadow. The near-symmetrical viewpoint gives the building a monumental presence, transforming a contemporary commercial and leisure development into something more austere and sculptural. The monochrome treatment further emphasises its geometry, texture and dramatic relationship between light and darkness.
I shot this image handheld during a very quiet moment on a Saturday evening at Nottingham Midland railway station. I focused on the windows at the far end of the image and allowed the side windows to become progressively out of focus closest to the camera. I was using a 50mm f1.4 lens on my Canon 6D, but for some reason I shot it at f1.8. Nevertheless, I still had a shutter speed of 1/125th of a second, which was more than adequate to obtain a sharp image.
Killing time in the city before heading to a camera club meeting. This was taken using a 7Artisans 12/2.8 mkII lens
I took this photo near St Peter's Church and M&S in Nottingham.

Rock Cottage
Brewhouse Yard Museum
A view taken from the wall of Nottingham Castle.
The museum depicts the social history of Nottingham over the last 300 years.
Housed in five 17th century cottages adjacent to the famous 'Trip to Jerusalem' public house.
Brewhouse Yard once contained a thriving community of 20 houses with, at its peak, a population of some 127 people.
Today the surviving buildings house the museum and contain a mixture of reconstructed room and shop settings, and gallery displays.
Here you can experience being in a Victorian home, see inside a child’s bedroom, root through the cupboards in the kitchen and pump water.
I went along to Goose Fair on two evenings while it was on this year. On the first evening I took with me my Fujifilm XT2 camera with a 35mm f/2 lens, and the second evening my XT3 camera with the kit lens (see adjacent detail).
