This pub is located at the junction of Woodthorpe Drive and Woodborough Road, in Mapperley’s town centre, at the top of a long, steep climb out of the city. Woodthorpe Drive descends from the west side of Mapperley, past Woodthorpe Grange, a grade II listed house built in 1874. Acquired by Nottingham City Council in 1921, the estate was converted into Woodthorpe Park – ‘rich in mature trees, ornamental gardens and enjoyable walks’.
