I've just left Nottingham, but there are quite a few decent spots dotted around the city centre:

Broadmarsh Brick Boobies. These might be completely gone by now, but there were still some skatable sections there before I left.

Old Market Square. Ok, Slab Square is completely gone, but the new design does look very skatable (www.oldmarketsquare.org), and apparently the same 'relaxed' attitude to skating is to be applied to the new square.

The Crescent. A series of gaps, drops, stairs and ledges behind a pub (I forget the name) just off Maid Marrion Way. Go down Maid Marrion Way, and turn right at the Indian with a Tuk-Tuk stuck to the wall and you're there. Can be a bit of a bust, but an awesome spot when it's not.

Ice Arena. The disabled carpark at the side is home to a little (but tight) concrete bank/wallride affair. Good fun.

Evening Post offices. There's some ledges at the front, though there's some serious BMX peg damage to some of them.

Magistrates Court. The front of the building, near the bridge has a little stair set and a little wall-to-drop.

Hyson Green Manual Pad. Just by ASDA in Hyson Green is the manual pad. Can be a very sketchy place to be after dark though.

St Anns Banks. There's some awesome concrete banks up by Serlby Rise in St Anns. Take a bullet proof vest though.

Rescue Rooms Ledges. The walls opposite the rescue rooms offer varying heights of ledges/drops.

Shakespear St Banks. Between the students union and the fire station. Large brick banks, a bit haggared by the BMX crowd, sadly.

Phoenix Park. There's a high, curved kerb by the tram stop.

Victoria Centre. By the bus stop outside House of Frasier, theres a ledge with a metal lip.

Castle Benches. The run from the castle gates down to the Old Trip is packed with benches and the like.

Nottingham is pretty muched packed with little spots, shame the atmosphere there is so shit.

You forgot the set of stairs by the Forest playing fields, cock-knocker.
