  1. Great website. Do you happen to know where the main postal sorting office was in 1951? Also which Night schools would have taught shorthand and typing?

    1. Hello Corinne, I’m sorry, I don’t know. I moved to Nottingham in 1974, so I can only really comment on the 1970s. As far as I remember, the main sorting office then was on Huntingdon Street and there were quite a few Night School classes teaching shorthand and typing all over Nottingham. I learnt touch typing at Night School in Clarendon College in the 1970s for example, but there were many other options across the city by then. Roy.
