Historic Interest

Built in 1912 for Frank W. Johnson, from whom it takes its name. On the site of the earlier Abbey Tavern, a popular haunt of bargees on the nearby Nottingham Canal (Whitworth 2010). Asset of Community Value registered 21st April 2016, nominated by the Nottingham Branch of CAMRA. The Johnson Arms has a place on Nottingham Civic Society's Draft List of Local Heritage Assets (09 December 2013), which noted it as being built to a design by local architect Frederick Ball LRIBA (1861-1915) and its original dark green faience facade. Ball was the Sheriff of Nottingham 1906-07 and Mayor of Nottingham 1913-14 and was uncle of the WWI air ace, Albert Ball. Other Nottingham pubs designed by Ball include the Generous Briton, Alfreton Road; the White Lion, Clumber Street (1910); the White Horse, Ilkeston Road (1912) and the Star Inn , Beeston (1915). As at November 2017 the freehold (NT341773) was held by Punch Partnerships (PML) Limited [Reg. No. 3321199]. This was transferred to Patron Capital on the 5th March 2018.
