A Nottinghamshire pub branded 'rough' has been demolished to make way for new council housing. The site of the Inham Nook pub in Inham Road, Chilwell, will be turned into 12 houses and three apartments after the plans were approved by Broxtowe Borough Council's planning committee on September 7.
New pictures show the site after the venue was torn down by workers in recent days. The land is owned by the borough council and all properties would be so-called affordable housing, to be rented out at an affordable price.
Previously described as a "rough" pub, it had struggled financially over the years and has had 14 tenants in the last 10 years, with one local councillor saying it was "a pub with a chequered history". Initial plans to demolish the pub and council garages were given the green light in March.
