The Peacock Inn, Ilkeston

demolished to make way for housing

The Peacock is an unusuall looking pub that is set back from church street. When i first visited this pub it was a Shipstones tied house,once inside there was a largish bar and a decent comfortable lounge. There were two real ales on here the Shiptstones bitter was a decent drink here there was also Shipstones mild. This pub is still standing but i am not sure if is still open.
