View Full Version : Beautiful Nottingham City superhans April 3rd, 2008, 08:22 PM Photographs of some but by no means all of Nottingham's fantastic architecture: superhans April 3rd, 2008, 10:46 PM Nottingham's architecture. It dates back over 1000 years, so the City has had a great range of buildings built throughout its history. Nottingham also has many grand buildings as a result of our fantastic Victorian ancestors and these are the buildings mainly photographed here. Nottingham is actually quite a beautiful place, contrary to what the press prefers to write about it..
