A very rare specialised publication relating to Nottingham, including its history, geography and facilities in 1834 including schools, places of worship, carriers and postal services, etc., together with an alphabetical listing of people with trades, plus gentry, etc., and a complete classified trades directory. Also included is a fascinating street map of the town as it was in 1834. At this date, the town ends on Derby Road just short of what is now Canning Circus, where there are two windmills, and this map also shows the positions of the twelve windmills on what is now The Forest. The Nottingham canal has been built, but there are no houses south of Canal Street, just open meadows. To the East, a new development of houses is just starting off Carlton Road.

A superb F. White’s Directory with a detailed description and history of every place in the county of Nottinghamshire. Each of the larger places has a list of the streets in the town (not a street directory which names the occupants of each house) and a list of private individuals who could not be assigned a ‘trade’ plus a trade directory which lists all of the bakers, brewers and butchers etc in that place. The smaller villages and hamlets still have the lists of people and trades, but sometimes not the streets list. The beauty of these White’s directories is that they are so meticulous in their detail. This book for example contains just over 800 pages and an equivalent Kelly\'s might contain perhaps a quarter of that amount! All in all this is a superb resource for those with an interest in building up a picture of what the place that their ancestor lived in was actually like and also the history behind it too.
