Here’s a note for your diary – on the Jubilee bank holiday weekend from Thursday 31st May to Monday 4th June, the pubs on Nottingham’s Mansfield Road are joining to host the best real ale and cider trail in Nottingham.   Involving six from the Forest Tavern / Maze at the top of the hill via the Lincolnshire Poacher, Nag’s Head, Golden Fleece, Peacock and Rose of England, all the landlords and landladies promise great food, live music and a fantastic selection of real ale and cider.

And they're off - The Forest Tavern at the start of the downhill trail
