Yes, it's a listed building and restored as a restaurant.

Thanks. Perhaps it is called "Chez Bibendum".

Please tell me it is not something like a Kebab joint, Nandos or similar.

I can't help but think Cuckney Garage (on the A60 just north of Mansfield at the junction with the A616) is not long for this world Sad



It's been standing empty now for several years and doesn't really have the facilities for re=opening, so presumably the site will eventually be sold for residential development...
