News: Fives Courts Tatershall Drive

Tuesday, November 29, 2005 - 12:26 AM

My name is Ben Price. I am at present on a quest to play "Fives" at every Fives Court in this country within the next ten tears. I have also untertaken some research into the whereabouts of Fives Courts past and present. I recently did an internet search on "Fives Nottingham" and I came across an entry for planning permission in 1909 and i quote:

ref NPE P3/218/1-2 "two plans for two Fives Courts T Cartwright at Tattershall Drive1909"

This was a Nottingham University Historical Records website.

Could any resident let me know if they were

1. Ever Built
2. Still in existence
3. Converted into garage, house etc.
4. Still being used
5. Has anyone got a church buttress in their garage or living room and wonder what it is. (Eton Fives has a church butress sticking out in the middle of the court -believe it or not) see Eton Fives Website.

They must be on Tattershall drive somewhere.

Thanks Ben Price

This website has now moved from its old server. Some of the old features are not yet working fully and will gradually come back online as I get the time to rebuild it. Please bear with me, normal service will be resumed as soon as possible.

News: Canning Circus Developments

Friday, November 18, 2005 - 06:33 PM

Residents of Newcastle Drive are concerned about the proposed Canning Circus Pedestrian Scheme. They complain that the proposals for The Ropewalk will increase the volume of traffic on their road and have an adverse impact on safety and the quality of the environment. Anyone who feels that they may be affected by this scheme should contact Stephen Hyde on stephen@hydemail.co.uk. The more letters the council receives, the greater the impact. If you would like to read the text of the objection letter sent to the City Council, please click on the title of this story or on "Read more..." below.
