People in Nottingham city centre have welcomed a plan to breathe new life into a 'gorgeous building'. Plans have been put forward for a 'high quality' sports bar in the former All Saints clothes shop in Thurland Street.
The historic building, across from the Thurland Hall pub, was also once home to a bank. The ARC Inspirations bar group have agreed to take over the lease and have a '"real drive... to open the bar within the winter of 2022".
Shoppers and workers said it was a good move to make use of the landmark property. Administrator Rosie Banner, who is 30 and from Nottingham, said: "I didn't realise they were doing that, but I think it's a gorgeous building and will be nice to see it used again.
