Initially a market town, Nottingham became involved in the textile industry as early as the 12th century. In the early 18th century it had become a centre for the hosiery industry, with many buildings containing stocking knitting frames. From the 1780s this developed into the lace industry, and the stocking frames were adapted for lace production. By the 1840s, the town had become the English centre for lace production, with the building of factories and warehouses. Many of the listed buildings were associated with the lace industry, including houses with attics lit by long horizontal windows, former factories and warehouses, which have later been used for other purposes. The other listed buildings include houses and associated structures, shops, offices, churches, chapels and items in churchyards, public buildings, bridges, former almshouses, banks, railway buildings, a boundary marker, statues, a former toll house, canal buildings, public conveniences, a former tram depot, entrances to the Victoria Embankment, a former cinema, war memorials, flagstaffs and lamp posts, and telephone kiosks.
