In 1965 Arthur Ling, Professor of Town Planning at Nottingham University, described Maid Marian Way, which cut ruthlessly through the historic street pattern and led to the destruction of several significant buildings, as "one of the ugliest streets in Europe". The ancient Old Salutation Inn - parts of it restored out of all recognation - is on the right, dwarfed by the Travelodge, one of several wholly undistinguished tower blocks.
