Flower Delivery to Nottinghamshire: History, Culture, and Robin Hood
Sherwood Forest in Nottinghamshire was once a royal hunting forest. It covers 450 acres and contains a really fascinating ecosystem comprised of woodland and wildlife. While those are tempting enough for a visit, what lures a lot of people here is its association with the legend of Robin Hood.
The folk hero is forever linked to Nottinghamshire, evidenced by the number of Robin Hood-themed tours around the county. A Robin Hood itinerary takes you to places associated with the folk hero, such as Nottingham Castle, Lincoln Cathedral, and of course, Sherwood Forest.
But there is more to Nottinghamshire than just the myth of Robin Hood. There’s history, nature, and culture to savour in this East Midlands County.
History
There is enough evidence to prove the existence of prehistoric settlements in Nottinghamshire. An Anglian tribe arrived in the area from Lincolnshire and settled in the south and east, which were fertile districts.
Romans settled mostly in the low-lying eastern portion of Nottinghamshire along the Fosse Way.
Nottinghamshire comprised part of Mercia, an Anglo-Saxon kingdom. It then became one of the five Danish boroughs after the Danes invaded in the 9th century.
A number of dukes acquired much of the northern part of Sherwood Forest and established estates that became known as Dukeries.
Nottinghamshire sits on extensive coal measures with mining becoming a major industry beginning the 13th century. The Industrial Revolution intensified coal mining and it also led to the development of many other industries, including textile manufacturing.
