Midland Towns and Cities

III, Nottingham 
This programme will include ewell-known 
Nottingham artists, being preceded by a short resumé of the features of the City by JOHN HINGELEY 
A LTHOUGH it does not possess an orchestra of its own, Nottingham can be counted as one of the really musical towns in the Midlands. Some of the finest artists heard on the Midland Regional Transmitter are natives of the place, and it possesses some good choral societies. The organ recitals by H. 0. Hodgson arc a regular feature of the wireless programmes. One of the most interesting annual events in . the town is ' Goose Fair,' which, unfortunately, it was found impossible to broadcast this year. Situated on the Trent and guarded by the picturesque castle, Nottingham is one of the cleanest and pleasantest of English cities. What is left of Sherwood Forest, where the famous Robin Hood caused the Sheriff of Nottingham so much trouble, lies to the north. The town, which is noted for its manufacture of lace, is supposed to have been founded by early cavemen, as it is honeycombed with caves, including a great troglodyte fortress stretching for miles underground and capable of holding 30,000 men. This huge fortress, barred by a great iron door for fear inquisitive people should get them-solves buried alive in its mazes, is approached from the cellar of a greengrocer's shop.
