Woodland Place, Nottingham

[baby_button]

Hiya,

Does anyone know anything about Woodland Place in Nottingham? Have recently started to research my family history and this place has come up.  Would love to know more.  From my own research it seems it may have been on Parliament Street?

Hi Baby_button,

According to my old street names of Nottingham it lists Woodland Place as being off Long Row.

Hope that helps.

best wishes,

Hi,
Just another thought... Nottingham Library have some very good scale maps for looking at streets in close detail, if you can go in great, if no email them, they are a very helpful crowd!

You can get their email address off the Notts CC web site, just put in library.

Good luck!
