Website

A large Wetherspoon pub in the centre of the shopping area of Sherwood, to the north of Nottingham. This former tram and bus garage has been tastefully converted, with a raised seating area opposite the bar, and to the rear, an area with booths and settees. 8 real ales, including 4 rotating guest ales and 1 traditional cider available. Two staircases lead to further seating upstairs with views over Mansfield Road. The usual Wetherspoon menu is available all day from 8am, with alcohol served from 10am.

There are photographs of the local neighbourhood on the walls and a commissioned artwork hangs to the left of the bar. The pub was named after a lace maker from Sherwood.

Historic Interest

Built in 1900 as a tram depot for Nottingham Corporation Tramways (Nottingham Post) and named after Basford born inventor Samuel Hall (1782 - 1863). Hall made a fortune after inventing a lace finishing process which used gas burner to remove loose fibres. He subsequently invented the surface condenser for steam boilers, although ironically his own design was not successful (www.britannica.com).

The Samuel Hall has an entry on the Nottimgham Local Heritage List as Heritage Asset HA569.

[Nottingham City Council, Sherwood Ward / Nottingham East Parliamentary Constituency]
