Zig Zag Tours

13/08/2026

Sunday 13th September 2.30pm meet Beeston Train Station

Join Toby Ebbs (Zig Zag Tours) and Chryse Tinsley (Beeston Civic Society) on a walk around Beeston Town Centre, to celebrate some its the lesser known historic buildings. Toby and Chryse are currently reviewing all unlisted historic buildings in Beeston and have unearthed some hidden gems, lesser known social histories and identified buildings that are worthy of protection from demolition (but would the Planning Inspector agree???). The walk will take around 2 hours and will include a fascinating collection of archival materials; including historic maps, photographs and anecdotal evidence that brings some of Beeston’s lesser celebrated historic buildings to life!

We briefed and fed 60 zigzaggers before sending them in the wilds of Nottingham, zig zagging across town to great pubs and an abandoned building, answering questions on our first ever quiz crawl!

We then presented trophies to the winners and had a raffle with the best prizes!

Thanks to everyone who attended and to the great pubs who hosted us.




The Dragon

I think we will do this again!

Support your pubs!
