Ghost Walk
It was a dark and murky evening as 12 NSGOM travelled by tram into Nottingham for our Ghost Walk. Leaving the tram in the Market Square we walked down to the Trip to Jerusalem where our guide, Simon, was waiting for us.
We walked up to the Statue of Robin Hood and then the castle entrance where we learnt something of the history of the site. It was then on to Friar Lane and Maid Marion Way for further stories.
Eventually crossing over the road to the Salutation where we went down into one of the caves below the pub itself. Here we heard some gruesome tales of ghostly happenings and public executions and of bodies being hung drawn and quartered in times long gone.
A further walk down towards the former Radio Tent building and St Nicholas church followed as we finally found ourselves in the upstairs bar at the Trip hearing about the various curses cast on the pub and some of the consequences which followed.
Finishing for 8.30 we travelled back by tram where some members enjoyed a chip supper and others opted for a more liquid form of refreshment.!!!!
A very enjoyable trip organised by David Robbins. We meet up again later in November for a Christmas lunch at Ramsdale Park golf club.
