The former Unitarian Chapel, now de-consecrated, is the premises of the Pitcher and Piano public house.
The Pitcher and Piano is a newly refurbished pub that is located inside this striking Grade II-listed church in the Lace Market Conservation Area of Nottingham.
The Unitarian Chapel was built, to a Gothic Revival-style design in 1876, by Bristol architect Stuart Colman. Later it became a lace industry museum and exhibition centre. A detailed description of the building can be seen at the following link: (
