In one quiet Nottingham suburb that’s changed ‘dramatically’ over the years, shoppers have reminisced on how the High Street has transformed from what it used to be. Whilst those who live locally are happy there are still a few long-standing businesses left, they remember much-loved businesses which unfortunately are no longer on their doorstep.
The small high street on Bracebridge Drive in Bilborough is home to a fish and chip shop, charity shops, Greggs, convenience stores and more. With a much-loved local pub, The Pelican, people say they would like to see more independent businesses on offer.
