About

The Park & Castle area sits just south of Nottingham’s central shopping streets, anchored by Nottingham Castle on a sandstone outcrop known as Castle Rock. The castle site contains museum and gallery spaces housed around the historic site and looks down over the Old Market Square area. Paths and terraces cut into the rock give clear views along the city ridge, and the castle grounds link directly to nearby civic streets and green spaces used by residents and visitors alike.

Immediately adjacent, The Park is a residential conservation area laid out in the 19th century on land that had once been the castle’s deer park. It contains a mix of Victorian and Edwardian houses arranged on a regular street pattern, with gated entrances to some roads and remnants of original boundary walls. Properties here are set back from the carriageways, and the estate’s quiet streets make for short walks to the castle slopes, local schools and transport nodes serving central Nottingham.
