The Robin Hood on Nottingham Road in Alfreton is recorded 1932-41. The pub was at No. 90, a house number that appears no longer to exist.
Information from trade directories for the period 1932-41 can be found at the Pub Wiki.[1] Unless street numbering has changed at this locality, the pub would have been located near the coordinate provided here. A property consisting of a former bingo hall and hairdressers at 90-94 Nottingham Road, Somercotes, was auctioned in 2019,[2] but this is in Oldcotes, not Alfreton. The 1941 Kellys Directory for Derbyshire has the Robin Hood under Alfreton, not Somercotes.[3] Template:PnItemQry
