Fletcher Gate is part of the “City Loop” bus route. There isn’t a corresponding bus stop on the east side of the road; it’s kind of a one way system for the buses at this point, so if you’re going to this bus stop, you’ll be arriving from the south. (Trams arrive at Lace Market tram stop from both directions.)

A good landmark if you’re on the bus is Nottingham Contemporary Art Gallery, a striking modern building, coloured dull green and gold. It’s on the right of the bus (east) just before you need to get off.

From the bus or tram stop to Lace Market Square

If you were on the bus, walk or wheel along to the tram stop.

There is a wide, flat path from Lace Market tram stop to Lace Market Square. The path is called Adams Walk.

It starts at the edge of the south-bound tram stop, on the east side of Fletcher Gate. This is just on the corner where Fletcher Gate meets Warser Gate.
