Original: Ye Olde Trip To Jerusalem , partially built into the cave system beneath Nottingham Castle , is a contender for the title of '' England 's Oldest Pub '' due to its supposed establishment in 1189 . The Bell Inn on the Old Market Square , and Ye Olde Salutation Inn on Maid Marian Way , have both disputed this claim .
