An empty Nottingham city centre restaurant is set to be taken over, nearly a year after it first closed. The national restaurant chain Wildwood confirmed the closure of its King Street branch in May 2024. The eatery had been a fixture in King Street for 10 years, serving up Italian food including pizzas, pasta, and grills. It was one of 18 Wildwood branches to close after owners Tasty announced major restructuring plans.

A consultancy firm has been paid £90,000 to work on a huge Nottinghamshire boundary shake-up that is supposed to save money in what one leader has dubbed a "scandal". Councils across Nottinghamshire are currently preparing for the biggest change to local government in 50 years.
