Severn's (Lace Centre), Castle Road, Nottingham

This Medieval merchant's oak framed house originally stood on Middle Pavement. When the area was cleared to build the Broadmarsh shopping centre in 1969 it was dismantled and rebuilt on Castle Road near Nottingham Castle.

In 1735 John and James Severn started their wine importing business. In the early 1900s the company acquired this building which was next the original Georgian ones. Over the years the building was altered and extended, but only the medieval part was saved.
