What The City of Nottingham Is?
Nottingham is a picturesque city in the East Midlands of the country rests upon the Trent River. This city numbers nearly 300,000 residents, while the population of the city together with the surrounding residential suburb and towns has reached approximately 700,000 people. The underground passage and rooms that form a whole city of caves under the place of Nottingham provide compelling evidence of Roman era settlement, once called “Tigguo Cobauc”, that means “city of cavy dwellings”. Some of such underground dwellings even date back to 13th centuries. Numerous signs allege that a whole generation of people, mostly underprivileged, lived in the local caves and mostly of them were man-made. Subterranean life had everything: dwellings, workplaces, storage chambers, and even stables. Due to the cool “underground” temperature some of the caves were ideal for brewers and butchers. The subterranean premises became popular as the workplaces of bakers, smiths and chandlers because they could be scarcely set afire.
