Join Chill as he meets with Janine Tanner, a local historian who gives us an exclusive look at 'Long Stairs' in Nottingham. Almost lost to time, this medieval marvel has been resurrected from obscurity thanks to Janine's determination and the collective effort of a dedicated group of volunteers. In this video, Janine takes us on a tour of Long Stairs, revealing the remarkable transformation from tangled overgrowth to an exciting glimpse into the city's past. Beyond the stairs we discuss the cave, its entrance sealed off since the 1870s, holding within it mysteries waiting to be revealed. Janine's vision extends beyond mere restoration; she envisions Long Stairs open to the public, providing access to Nottingham's rich history while ensuring the privacy of neighbouring residents. With your support, we can turn this dream into reality, unlocking the secrets of the cave and preserving a vital piece of Nottingham's heritage for generations to come. UPDATE due to the success of this video Janine has started her own YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsEu5i6uhUq7R54XCz6IWJg make sure you go follow her and see what she has been up to.
