Description

Level 3 Measured Building Survey production of written description and photographic record. Site code: LNE14. Trent and Peak Archaeology was commissioned by Harrison Wood Architecture to carry out an historic building survey on the premises formerly trading as the Lord Nelson (PH), 20 Nottingham Road, Eastwood, Nottingham. Cartographic evidence suggests The Lord Nelson was constructed between 1869 and 1876; trade directories first list The Lord Nelson in 1876. The buildings brickwork and exterior window openings indicate a 19th century date. The building started with a nearly rectangular shape built two stories high at the front and three stories high at the rear. A second cell was built by 1901, the form of this build may suggest an industrial building, possible malting. However, as many alterations have occurred to the building, it is difficult to establish if this is the case. The building was most likely a beerhouse before it was a public house, with Trade Directories listing the landlord as a 'beer retailer'; often beerhouses were simply converted workers houses. Several windows and doorways were later infilled and few original features appear to have survived due to 20th century alterations. Information from OASIS Online Form. (1)
