Clarendon Hotel (Completed)
« on: Tuesday 20 September 05 21:14 BST (UK) »
I have a photograph which was among some old postcards i bought of Nottingham, It is a photo of a very long open top car/bus outside the Clarendon Hotel.
Was there a Clarendon Hotel in Nottingham ?
And does anyone know the time frame if there was ?
Having done a bit of research the photo was taken in the 1910/20's.

Hi Steve
 
The Clarendon Hotel was next to the Theatre Royal and became the County Hotel which was demolished in 1975. If you go on Picture the Past and search for Clarendon Hotel and Nottingham it will bring up a picture and the info.

I found the photo you spoke of Jane but cannot see if it is the same one.
Here is the photo of my Clarendon Hotel. Do you think they are the same ?

Hi Steve

No it doesn't look the same. Is it definitely Nottingham?

Hi Jane, I'm not sure but do think it is at least the E. Midlands, The photo was among some Nottingham postcards i bought, and the bus in the picture is a Trent bus.
