Great atmospheric images of my city. The city centre just doesn’t have as much life and people in it as it used to, such a shame.

Really great footage of Nottm in the sixties. There is an antique shop on Drury Hill, called N.E.Iliffe. Does anyone know who this was/is?

Seems everyone was born in Nottm - me too! I would have been 2 when this was shot. It looks so much nicer here than it does now. I no longer live there but have fond memories. I think the music is good.

The year I was born. My mum worked in Norwich Union House in the Square for years, I was obsessed as a 7-8 year old, with the fact that the caretaker and his wife lived in a flat on the roof - you can just see it on the film. I was even given a guided tour once. Never dawned on me that the clock opposite would've struck day and night and would've driven them mad😃

Stop talking rubbish. The problem of gangs shooting at each other in Nottingham, is long gone. It was limited to a few groups. Police put a stop the idiots. Two of the biggest currents issues in Nottingham - the number of homeless people, and the number of people on drugs.

@@gordonbennett5638 Not compared to now it wasn't. Nottingham is filthy now... well not necessarily during the pandemic when town is empty but you know what I mean. Pre-pandemic on Sunday mornings it was vomit everywhere and the chewing gum all over is disgusting. Then there's the collections of litter in doorways where the wind has blown it and the council street cleaner machine can't get (nor the worker can't be arsed to sweep out). Cracked paving slabs, uneven curbs. Terrible now. Town is a shadow of what it was.
