Description
The main venue is a former water pumping station dating back to 1873 constructed by Thomas Hawskley, engineer to Nottingham Waterworks Company. It is Grade II* Listed, built in the Gothic revival style and is of traditional brick construction, being part single and part two storey (including ground floor mezzanine), with tower, and basement.
The northern elevation is single storey and of traditional brick construction with a hipped and pitched tile and slate roof, with ornate iron roof railings. There are three arches to the front providing a grand glazed entrance into the main reception area and four large doors to the north leading to an enclosed patio area.
The southern elevation is two storey and of traditional brick construction with stone lintels. There are four large arched windows at ground floor level and four large porthole style windows at first/mezzanine floor level. Access is provided to the terrace by the lake.
The two elevations are centrally linked by the impressive Thomas Hawksley tower with brick elevations and three arched windows on each of the four elevations.
Internally, the main trading areas comprise restaurant (80) with mezzanine (40), bar and lounge (80), function room (80) and wedding/function suite (150+).
The main entrance to the venue leads to a large reception area which in turn leads to the striking Grand Hall and main wedding/function suite. There is a grand staircase providing access to the Hawksley bar and lounge at first/mezzanine floor level. To the left of the main reception is the restaurant with decorative ceiling and four pillars splitting the bar and restaurant areas. At second floor level is a private dining area with its own bar. There are two lifts in the venue one situated within the tower providing access from the ground floor upwards, and the other from the main reception to mezzanine bar.
At ground floor level to the side of the Grand Hall there are male and female WCs, plant room, kitchen servery, and stores. Further WCs are provided at first and second floor level and there is a separate kitchen to the first floor. The kitchens have been fitted to a high specification, and these fixtures and fittings may be available by separate agreement. Please enquire for further detail.
The main venue has been extensively refurbished to a very high specification and must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
