I used to visit Marple St to see relatives in the 1960's. Very cramped housing, no bathrooms and toilets out in the back yard. Much has changed.- Thanks for posting.
This video is very nice many thanks for the upload - im not going to go into huge detail but i was born in sneinton/st,anne's in 1986 - ok might not seem like a very long time ago but i can tell anyone for sure alot of chang's have taken place! its very sad in most respect's, im also mixed race asian/white so i got alot of abuse more mental than physical at my old school Blue bell hill so some thing's never change! anyway - one love and take care :) thanks again for the upload...bless!
nice film, I lived just off the bottom of gorden rd middle to late sixties and I have fond memories ,some called them slums but i can assure you they were't. I think it a crime the way it was all destroyed plus black and white mixed more than today.

I’d love to hear more about Nottingham’s social history (50s - 90s), especially from those who came in the Windrush era.

st anns like the meadows and bestwood were nice areas then the council used these places as a dumping ground for troublemakers
Bestwoods turned into a shit hole full of wronguns
Some good people caught up in difficult social circumstances. Not always trouble makers
