It has had a 'chequered history'
A Nottinghamshire pub branded 'rough' has been demolished to make way for new council housing. The site of the Inham Nook pub in Inham Road, Chilwell, will be turned into 12 houses and three apartments after the plans were approved by Broxtowe Borough Council's planning committee on September 7.
Previously described as a "rough" pub, it had struggled financially over the years and has had 14 tenants in the last 10 years, with one local councillor saying it was "a pub with a chequered history". Initial plans to demolish the pub and council garages were given the green light in March.The proposals had split opinion among local residents, with the former captain of the pub darts team ruing the potential loss of the 'local estate pub'.
