The statue of the Old General has been a constant presence in Nottingham for nearly a century, symbolizing resilience amidst the city’s significant economic transformations.
Each Christmas, the Old General becomes a festive figure as residents dress him in Santa Claus attire. This annual tradition marks the start of the holiday season.
Steve Oliver describes the Old General as a landmark ingrained in the memories of Nottingham's residents, representing a piece of their community's history and continuity.
Despite the closure of the pub and changing times, the statue remains a cherished reminder of the neighborhood’s past and the community spirit of Hyson Green.
