Taking a break from browsing the shops and sampling the local delicacies, people in Mapperley have provided a snapshot into life on a high street where in the good weather people are found 'sitting outside using their local'. Keimae Blake reports.
Mapperley Top, past Woodborough Road to Plains Road, is home to a wonderful mix of shops and residents say the high street is "continuing to grow". There's a good selection of pubs and restaurants, like Castle Rock brewery's Bread and Bitter, cafe bars Copper and The Old Flower Shop.
Mapperley is also home to many independent, local businesses and places to dine. The shopping options in the area have been praised by those that live there.
