Steve.

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.
