By 1951, when this film was made as part of Nottingham's Festival of Britain celebrations, nearly 25 years had elapsed since the great civic upheaval that saw the city's centuries-old market and annual Goose Fair ousted from the square for a new and imposing Council House. Since then 'meeting by the left lion' (the most favoured of the Joseph Else-designed sculptures) has started many a Nottingham night-out or relationship.

Members of the Nottingham and District Film Society were behind the camera for this well-made look at life in Old Market Square.
There’s a tunnel under the Council House that runs up to The Park, built by an extremely arrogant Victorian Lord Mayor who wanted to avoid mixing with the plebs on his way home,
The stone used for the Council House was left over from the building work of St Paul’s cathedral in London.
