As with most other reviewers her, this library holds so many memories! I went weekly as a child; my children went twice weekly when they were young; and I went every night when I was doing my degree! xx

Whenever I'm away, this is the place I miss the most. I can't wait to get back there at the…read moreweekend! It's a smallish library, but there's a great selection of books, and a good study area with all the reference books to hand. The computer terminals are all internet connected, you just need to get yourself a password. You're only allowed an hour online if there's a queue (and there often is), but hey it's free! The librarians are always friendly and helpful too. The only thing that's missing is Sunday opening and a coffee shop. ;-)

This place has recently undergone a makeover, which has made it look much more inviting. I would…read moreactually go as far as to say that I prefer this to Nottingham Central Library. It doesn't always look like it has the range of books (it specialised in local history) but having said that, I've never not been able to find a book. If there is something you want, but can't find, they'll order it for you. In the summer holidays there are often a lot of children/ teenagers playing on the computers and making a lot of fuss. It's not a bit problem as the staff handle them very well, and there used to be a children's play area with toys and books in, though I'm not sure if that's still there now. Overall, very good.

The Square has just been redeveloped and very beautiful. Its where everyone seams to meet.

In the winter the ice rink arrives, this is a must on a cold winters evening - open air skating - fantastic. The front of the Square faces on to the Council House building where the Little John bell is housed. The Old Market Square is supposedly where Robin Hood won the Silver Arrow in an archery compitition thrown by the Sheriff of Nottingham. At christmas time the Square plays host to the German Market where German vendors come to sell their goods. I recommend the German sausages with mustard. they are tasty.

So, they've just spent a lot of our money on it. They seem to have made it very skateboard…read morefriendly, - good for skateboarders, not so good for everyone else. The fountains and lights are pretty fancy. The place doesn't offend me - was it worth the twelve months of agro and the money. Well, probably, actually. The tram track development was central to the redevelopment of the market square. The trams are great - Nottingham has character again - and it's not related to gun crime! The selection of shops on the square is pretty good and varied - from Debenhams to Burtons, the obligatory Starbucks and Wetherspoons, but also all the main banks, Littlewoods, pound shops, Nottm tourist office, and of course the council house itself - The iconic lions still prowl and look on Nottingham!
