The Samuel Hall, NOTTINGHAM, Nottinghamshire

In 1825, the well-known lace manufacturer Samuel Hall purchased land in Sherwood. He laid out Sherwood’s first streets, on the east side of Mansfield Road, and sold his land in lots for the first houses to be built. Marshall Street (facing the tram depot site), Mansfield Street and Hood Street are roads named by Hall. Nearby Hall Street is named after him also.
