The entrance to the site previously occupied by The White Hart public house off the main Nottingham-Mansfield road (the A60). Following the pub's closure in 2009 the building was demolished and the site has remained unused. More recently however, the LIDL supermarket chain has been granted permission to open a new store on the site and early construction-related activity suggests that the project is being moved forward. Once completed, this new store would have to compete for customers with a nearby Sainsbury's supermarket and also with a new ALDI supermarket that is halfway towards being completed 400 metres away on Mansfield Road in the Sherwood direction. The new ALDI store is being built on the former Daybrook Laundry site.
