  • Shipstone's Brewery which was for decades Basford's most famous landmark. Brewing started on this site in 1852 and ended early in 1991. Although only the building remains, 'Shippos' appears here as an enduring tribute to the men of New and Old Basford whose Great War sacrifice was not commemorated elsewhere.
