Stand in the middle of the old market square on a Friday or Saturday night, spin around and go to the nearest bar in the direction you are pointing and then after that drink repeat - Makes for a fun. Read more

Visited Nottingham for the day and this very much seems like 'the' gathering point for citizens. Very busy plaza , with fountains people seem to like to play with!

The largest market square in UK! The lions (usually the left one) in front of the council house are used as a meeting point

Should be termed the New Market square really but flattening the Old Market Square was the best thing the council ever did!
