They don't make them like this anymore
Tucked away down a side street in St. Ann's, you may not recognise the name 'The Vine', but it's one of the city's last examples of a corner-door pub. The curved door opens directly out on to the corner of Handel street.
A plaque on the side of the building reveals that it has been an inn since 1876 and that Home Brewery bought the premises in 1896. The premises would have had stables at the side and a smithy. A smithy is another term for a place where a blacksmith worked. There were several inns like this across Nottingham, including The Flying Horse Inn on Cheapside and The George on George Street which would have been coaching inns.
Coincidentally, The Bath Inn also has unusual features in that it was revealed to have been built in an Egyptian revival architecture in the 1920s. The features include tall columns that are an interpretation of Eygptian temples which are based on bunched reeds with lotus leaf motifs at the top.
