    As I'm off to Nottingham again end of next week, a reminder that it wasn't just the west midlands manufacturing cars, but also George Brough in the east midlands.

    Nottingham is better known for Raleigh bicycles, (and a few cars!) John Player Cigarettes (and sponsorship of Team Lotus of course), Boots the chemists, not to mention several important inventions - and a centre for the Luddites, but the Brough Superior motorbikes made a lasting impression despite the relative small numbers compared to the likes of BSA, Norton, Royal Enfield, Triumph, Velocette etc. Even fewer cars.

    All these have Nottingham registration plates - TO, AL, AU

    Ironically, my last UK job was on Haydn Road...

    First and last pics taken at the small, but interesting, Nottingham Industrial Museum.
