Broad Street is said to have been part of an ancient route connecting Nottingham with York via Doncaster. It was known as Broad Lane until the mid-1700s. Although the independent Broadway cinema has functioned on this site since 1982, many years ago – in 1860 in fact – a Wesleyan chapel was founded on this spot, it being the place where William Booth, the Methodist preacher, experienced his religious conversion. He later went on to found the Salvation Army.
