Old Market Square Overview

Old Market Square is one of the places to see in Nottingham that serves as a meeting place for locals and tourists alike, providing a respite from the hustle and bustle of the day. It is the second-largest public area in the United Kingdom and serves as a focal point for the city's social scene and transportation linkages.

 For over 800 years, Old Market Square has served as a bustling marketplace, making it one of the oldest public squares in the UK, and one of the best places to go in Nottingham. It serves as a social and transportation centre for the city and is the second largest public square in the United Kingdom. The streets of Nottingham's shopping district radiate outward from Old Market Square. Even the farthest stores may be reached in a short amount of time because of the city's wide avenues, which provide rapid, straight paths across the tiny city centre.

Major festivals and events, such as the annual Summer Riviera Beach and the annual Winter Wonderland, are also held in Nottingham, which is sometimes referred to as "the beating heart" of England. All year long, there are farmers markets where you can stock up on fresh, regional fare like artisan cheeses and meats. The Bell Inn or the picturesque Malt Cross is recommended if you're looking for a quiet place to unwind here, away from the noise and bustle of the city. Or, you may choose French Living, where you can enjoy hearty, home-cooked meals in a truly European atmosphere
