Seeing Nottingham City Centre a little differently

Here is the updated version of my Nottingham City Centre map which is different to other city centre maps because it extends from Hyson Green in the north to Trent Bridge in the south.

The map will be at the centre of a new Nottingham History by Bus spider map I am creating, so watch this blog.

There is a blank template showing just the streets which others can use free provide it is not used for profit.

Usual rule applies. Simply click on the map to enlarge.

Box Boxes update

Now that I'm back on my feet (it's six months since I had open heart surgery) I am reworking the 35 map for the Lenton Martinmass Fair in October and working on a new box following several requests over recent weeks (more when it happens). Lucy in the @ Little Magpies crafty shop on Beeston High Road is selling my boxes and friends ask me for one-offs and I have had an event in Beeston in mind for next summer (capturing a moment in time in Beeston Town Centre and recreating it outside Lucy's 2 Little Magpies using cardboard buses, cars etc.

By coincidence (Nottingham) City Arts have an event using cardboard boxes planned for December this year which I only found out about this week. 

I suddenly realised I have no photos of the current version of the bus box except one including me taking at the Lakeside local history fair last year.

The good news is that I have worked out how to fold a scored sheet ready to cut and glue in just one place so it can go into an envelope to be posted. It's taken a year but it's happened by chance.

I will start posting more as History By Buses gets more of my attention.
