The Nottingham Robin Hood Town Tour
Registration from: 14:30pm
During this tour, we traced the legendary Robin Hood's footsteps, uncovering historical facts and discovering how simple ballads from over 700 years ago evolved into one of the greatest tales ever told.
We admired the architecture of the Lace Market, once the world’s lace capital, and explored the history of St Mary’s churchyard.
We also ventured into ancient caves beneath the city streets, stopping at a few historic pubs for refreshments, and concluded our journey at the renowned Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem.
