A Nottingham woman returned to her old council house last month – but it was a council house with a difference.

Lilles Simpson, 80, lived in Nottingham’s landmark civic building, the Council House, from 1929 to 1946 when her father was the lord mayor’s sergeant. The building’s living quarters have long since become offices. But Simpson, pictured beneath the distinctive dome, returned to the building to present John Hartshorne, the current lord mayor, with mementos from her time there.
