City centre pub taking on a Gothic theme with elements of alchemy, dungeons and medieval times. On three levels, with basement and 1st floor bars but only fully utilised at busy times. The pub name, Pit & Pendulum, is taken from the title of an 1842 short story by American writer Edgar Allen Poe, which details the torment of a victim of the Spanish Inquisition.

Historic Interest

The Pit & Pendulum is a Grade II listed building (No. 1255205) and is located in Nottingham City Council's Lace Market Conservation Area. "Shop and offices, now public house. 1870.

Ground floor has 5 openings divided by ashlar pilasters with coloured tile panels. Full width cornice, and above the inner pilasters, a square relief panel with segmental pediment. In the centre bays, C20 windows and shopfronts. In the outer bays, C20 doors. Above, 5 windows on each floor, the fourth floor windows smaller.
