Meet the couple behind Nottingham's newest underground venue

When it comes to finding things to do in the city centre, it can get a bit dull heading to the same bars repeatedly. This has fuelled a move towards places that can offer an experience in comparison to just pints such as axe throwing, rage rooms or escape rooms.

The latest venue to open is a first for Nottingham's city centre and it's completely hidden from view on a busy street. The Alley, a new shooting experience is set to open before Christmas in the underground on Thurland Street. Visitors will need to look for the door beside Wonderpho, the Vietnamese restaurant and walk down the stairs to find an underground labyrinth of street art, paintballing and gaming-inspired masks.

Visitors will be able to book in, grab a mask and gun before taking on the many challenges that have been set up in different stages where there will be flashing targets to take aim at. Sam and Denise Viner took on the challenge of building the range which has taken four months to construct.
