We take a tour of Mansfield with Andy Abrahams, the elected mayor, as he tells us about his ambitious plans to transform the town centre. People are beginning to talk about Mansfield in a new way, he says. We also talk to local historian Denis Hill about the town's evolution since the earliest times. What happened between the departure of the Romans and the arrival of Robin Hood, and even a bit beyond? We find out.
The interview with Denis Hill begins around the 5-minute mark.
The interview with Mayor Andy begins in the market place around the 17-minute mark. He then tells us about his plans for the old Co-op and Beales building (about 30 mins in). We then move to White Hart Street, where he tells us about his ideas for the area around the viaduct (about 37 mins in).
