Halifax Place, Nottingham 1
A view of the Lace Market Theatre from the cul de sac end of Halifax Place. This theatre has had more than "a lick and a promise" over the years. Originally built in 1761 as a chapel, it later became the school where William Booth, founder of the Salvation Army, was a pupil. When an amalgamation of two amateur dramatic groups took it over in the 70s it was a dilapidated paint store. The building, which has been extended in now Grade II listed.

The Lace Market Theatre
This Grade II listed building in Halifax Place, off Pilcher Gate, has an interesting history. Originally a Unitarian Chapel of c 1760 it was remodelled in the 19th century with an elaborate Jacobean gable and classical doors and windows. After being used as a school in the mid 19th century it became a lace warehouse and later a paint store, before being acquired by the Nottingham Theatre Club in the 1970s. For more about it, try https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lace_Market_Theatre . Halifax Place was shadowed when I took the photograph at about eight o'clock on a sunny August evening.
