Yes, and if you only got it down to 70, I suspect it will continue to throw off flavors. Above 68 or so, all bets are off with Nottingham. I've used it as low as 58 with good results, others have used it even lower (I saw here on HBT that people use it at 55 and it works fine). This is a great strain to run at low temps.
After the lag phase, there is a 2-3 day period that is crucial in terms of the production of yeast driven flavor compounds. That is when temperature control is the most important, because it also happens to be when the yeast is most active and generating a good deal of heat.
