Place- location created by human experiences - Place exists of space that is filled with meaning and
objectives by human experiences - it is a visible expression of a specific time period

Historical development- Nottingham Castle, lace market (1800s), Anglo Saxon ‘snotingham’ market town,
Norman defensive site with a castle, canal (1796) and railway (1839), industry grew with Raleigh bikes

university park 1920s)

Hs2 was supposed to Help rebalance the uk economy with the north and south
divide. It would act as a catalyst for growth in the midlands and north to open up
employment and leisure opportunities for millions.
74,000 jobs will be lost and £4 billion in regional economy will be lost meaning there will be less
development in Nottingham and the surrounding areas.
Explain how connectedness can influence changing places (4 marks)
Regional connections can influence how places change and are regenerated. Local enterprise partnerships
such as D2N2 promote local collaborations between authorities and businesses to try and create more
opportunities for investment in the area. For the Nottingham area extensions for the NET will make transport
easer and quicker for customers. This will also make more connections for businesses meaning more
investment comes into the area. This will result in the area being regenerated due to the extra funding from
investment in the area.
