A photo taken in 1939 on Queen Street #Nottingham of the war memorial obelisk that was unveiled in 1903 to honor soldiers from Nottinghamshire who served and died in the South African (Boer) War (1899 – 1902). The obelisk was later moved to the Forest Recreation Ground in 1927 (where it stands today) to make way for the new electric trolley buses. #ThenAndNow @No1tingham

A photo of Bridlesmith Gate #Nottingham taken in 1969. In the background is The (notorious but fondly remember) Fountain pub.

Today, its where you're more likely to see someone wearing a jumper over their shoulder with the sleeves tied in a knot under their chin. #ThenAndNow @No1tingham
