A beautiful place to visit year-round. They updated the benches.

cafe and gift shop, plenty of outdoor seating

The church dates from the 13th century, and was completed in 1474 with funding from Walter Blount, 1st Baron Mountjoy. The chancel was restored and lengthened by 11 feet (3.4 m) in 1904 by George Frederick Bodley. Some of the tombs and memorials were moved to give a better view of the altar. The new chancel has no window at the east end, but a large reredos of carved white clunch filled the whole end, which was richly carved with subjects and figures, and effectively lit by two new traceried windows of three lights each in the north and south walls of the sanctuary. The pavements of the sanctuary and chancel were laid with black and white marble. The floor of the nave was laid with wooden blocks, and the aisles with slate and white stone. The plaster was removed from the walls. The roofs and various parts of the walls were decorated with gold and blue, with monograms of "B" for St Bartholomew.

A Gothic Revival castle in Elvaston, Derbyshire, is now part of Elvaston Castle Country Park, owned and managed by Derbyshire County Council, encompassing 321 acres of parkland, woodlands, and historical gardens. The castle, designed by James Wyatt in the early 1800s, replaced an older house dating back to 1633.

Robin Hood was basically a thief

There's no entry to the castle, but you can look through some of the windows. It's in a run-down state, would cost a fortune to restore but nevertheless quite magnificent inside. Reminded me of buildings in Venice with the gilded ornate art decorated ceilings and golden pillars.

Updated 2024, access to the castle is now severely limited due to the new land owner, can only be viewed from a fenced path across the field. The Codnor castle heritage trust is no longer involved with on site activities.

It is not for nothing that the building and park were used by Warner Bros in 2012 as a backdrop for the Batman film “The Dark Knight Rises”. selected. A really beautiful building that stands out on the hill and the park around it. Unfortunately, like many (if not all) historic buildings in and around Nottingham, it only opens from 11am.

The Legend of Sherwood! You can find spots with realtion to Robin Hood in the whole city.

The castle is on private land, having been sold off. English Heritage maintains the ruins...but there's no access to the site other than a footpath, which goes past it.

Nottingham is lifting on the legend of Robin Hood quite heavily. The statue is in front of the castle, Sherwood Forest a bit to the north by car.

Wollaton Park is a large park home to a variety of wildlife including, two herds of wild deer, 90 Red and 120 Fallow.

Must do Nottingham attraction.

Accessible with big dogs as the one stile you come across has a gap down the side - as all good stiles should have! Keep to the pink markers if approaching/crossing Ormonde Fields Golf Course, although most golfers are friendly. Codnor Castle Heritage Trust have reenactments here from time to time. Venturing further down the hill behind ( or in front?!) of the castle leads you across a small bridge to a gravel loop trail.

A marvellous 16th-century Elizabethan country house, the striking symmetrical architecture of Wollaton Hall now houses a natural history museum. The park that surrounds the hall is a lovely place for an afternoon ramble. Fallow deer roam the grounds, whilst its popular lake boasts a nature trail.

A visit to the Robin Hood statue is a must when visiting Nottingham.
