Some
interesting info about Nottingham.
Nottingham is a city and unitary
authority area in the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom. It
is located in the ceremonial county of Nottinghamshire, and is one
of eight members of the English Core Cities Group. Whilst the City
of Nottingham has a historically tightly drawn boundary which
accounts for its relatively small population of 288,700, the wider
Nottingham Urban Area has a population of 667,000 and is the
seventh-largest urban area in the United Kingdom, ranking between
those of Liverpool and Sheffield. Eurostat's Larger Urban Zone
listed the areas population at 825,600 as of 2004. Nottingham is
famed for its links with the Robin Hood legend and, during the
Industrial Revolution, obtained worldwide recognition for its
lace-making and bicycle industries. It was granted its city charter
as part of the Diamond Jubilee celebrations of Queen Victoria in
1897 and has since been officially titled the City of Nottingham.
