Nottingham Buildings

 

This inscription and  motif is to be found above the entrance tunnel that gives vehicular access to a central goods yard. Far left are the initials 'TCH' for the architect T. C. Hine and far right 'G & H' for the builder which I am informed by Ken Brand stands for
Garland & Holland who at the time of building had a yard nearby.

My family has a link to Richard Birkin.  My wife's grandfather Liscumb Morland a professional boxer in the city, taught Birkin's son to box.
