Situated right between Nottingham Trent and Uni of Nottingham’s campuses, Radford is a great choice for students studying at either university.

Radford itself has lots to be explored and should not be overlooked!

Here are a few places of interest which you should check out if you’re in the area:

Radford is full of incredible restaurants and pubs including, The red-brick Castle Pub, which carries an amazing yet simple British menu and regular live music.
