The future of a much-loved tearoom at one of Notts' most scenic spots is in doubt after 30 years. The owners of Ollerton Watermill Teashop, on the edge of Sherwood Forest, have spoken about their fears during the current economic struggle.
The family-run business always closes during the winter but usually reopens in time for Mother's Day. But this year it will remain closed, on Sunday, March 19.
Co-owner Kate Mettam said she doesn't know if, or when, they will reopen at the home of Notts' only working watermill, which dates back to 1713. Rising costs and staff shortages are at the root of the uncertainty.
