This Pub is Closed Long Term

A bar/brasserie, fine dining restaurant and health and fitness suite. Refurbished in 2017 and in 2021. Set in 5.5 acres of landscaped gardens with a picturesque lake and fountain, this former Victorian pumping station combines modern elegance with historic grandeur.

Historic Interest

A Venetian Gothic Revival style waterworks designed by Thomas Hawksley for the Nottingham Water Company between 1871 and 1874. Operating until 1964, its twin beam engines made by Joseph Witham & Sons of Leeds were scrapped by 1968. Water was extracted from the pebble beds at the rate of 3.5 million imperial gallons daily and the chimney was concealed in a campanile style bell tower. Hawksley was the most pre-eminent waterworks engineer of his day, and this is his most accomplished piece of architecture, successfully assimilating the engine house, coal store, boiler house and chimney with polychromatic effects, in a picturesque landscape (Historic England). Lakeside is a Grade II* listed building (No. 1265233) along with a number of other separately listed features on the site, such as the cooling pond.
