Nottingham

Nottingham, a city in Nottinghamshire, England, is a tourist destination and was named a UNESCO City of Literature, joining Norwich, Melbourne, Prague and Barcelona as one of only a handful in the world. The title reflects Nottingham's literary heritage, with Lord Byron, DH Lawrence and Alan Sillitoe having links to the city. The city is also ranked as a sufficiency-level world city.

Nottingham has links to the legend of Robin Hood and to the lace-making, bicycle (notably Raleigh bikes) and tobacco industries. It was granted its city charter in 1897 as part of Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee celebrations. The city is also a major sporting centre, and was named 'Home of English Sport'.
