Just outside the city, a tower stands at nearly 100 feet that helped bring drinking water into Nottingham. Built more than 70 years ago, the Swingate Water Tower dominates the skyline around the town Kimberley just off the A610. A failing reservoir further north in the county at Watnall prompted the Nottingham Corporation and The City of Nottingham Water Department to seek another way to bring water from the Derwent Valley, treat it, and supply it to taps in the city. source: https://www.nottinghampost.com/news/local-news/story-behind-grand-nottinghamshire-tower-5601795 https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1483831

Ancient sixteenth century village Pub with great food, part of the Greene King group. Hit the news recently when customer 68yr old widower Peter Deakes made a minature model replica of the pub. The model is on display on the bar where there is a collection box for the Alzheimer's Society.
