Coming back from derbyshire to Norfolk this week, towing, and must say the state of the Nottinghamshire roads we had to use were appalling, mainly on the A617 through Mansfield and down to Newark, as soon as we entered Lincolnshire the roads were fine.
If you're planning such a trip avoid it at all costs, miles and miles of potholes and bad patching, I had to continually veer from side to side to avoid the worst (when traffic allowed) but still felt really uncomfortable towing. When we got home everything that could move in the van had moved, despite being fine for the previous 400 miles of our trip.
Next time we're avoiding Nottinghamshire, even if it adds time and distance.
