Nottingham - NG6 (Bestwood Village)
School Walk in Bestwood Village houses the local Primary School and the Anglican church. St Mark’s was opened in 1887 to serve an area that grew out of the work of the Bestwood Coal and Iron Company, founded in 1872. The company built the colliery, the associated offices, most of the houses in the village, the school, the ironworks and finally, the church. The Duke of St Albans donated the half acre of land close to the school room and the cemetery, both of which he had already given in 1885. Prior to this, between 1877-85, a service was conducted on Sundays, firstly in the colliery school room and later on, in the school proper. The church was re-ordered in 2009 to bring it up to modern standards and it is now part of a team ministry with several other local churches.
