Notts Shots: October 2023
Mon 02 Oct 2023Since the late 1940s, the district of St Ann’s has been a richly diverse community and home to diaspora from all over the world, including many people of Afro-Caribbean descent. However, the landscape of the area changed immeasurably post-1960, when much of the nineteenth century terraced housing was demolished. While more structurally sound habitation was built, up to 30,000 residents were rehomed throughout the city, and the community that had developed in St Ann’s was never quite the same.
