Cox, M., 'Some Nottinghamshire Astronomers', Antiquarian Astronomer, Issue 4, January 2008, 23-34.
(NOTES: Illustrations, map. Bibliographical references. 'This paper summarises research into the lives of some of the astronomers who were born or worked in the English county of Nottinghamshire. Twelve individuals are mentioned, including the professional astronomers Norman Robert Pogson (1829-1891) and John Russell Hind (1823-1895); and the amateurs Robert White (1694-1773), Edward Gregory (1744-1824) and Joseph Whitehead (1784-1811). Collectively, these observers represent more than 300 years of local astronomical history, most of which is poorly documented. The rural south and east of the county was particularly rich in its clusters of observers, who were active within a few miles of each other. The interaction of these individuals would reward closer study.' | PLACE: Bingham; Eakring; Langar; Mansfield; Newark; Nottingham; Retford; Sutton in Ashfield; Upper Broughton; Worksop | SUBJECT: Science > Astronomy > Astronomers | ONLINE: Available online at the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System website | ISBN/ISSN: | PUBLICATION TYPE: Article in serial | ID NUMBER: 13107)

(NOTES: Illustrations, maps, plans. Building appraisal of the surviving 19th century buildings of the former Victoria Hospital, now Mansfield Community Hospital, Stockwell Gate, Mansfield. The former Victoria Hospital originated from the Mansfield Union Workhouse infirmary that lay to the east of the surviving buildings. Three elements of the former hospital still survive at the site, two smaller buildings that would have served as nurse stations, day rooms and offices, and a larger former ward wing to the east. The buildings were erected between 1897/8 with elements possibly dating from an earlier phase of construction in 1883. The Victoria Hospital was designed by local architect Robert Frank Vallance. | PLACE: Mansfield | SUBJECT: Historic environment > Architecture and building > Secular > Hospitals and health centres | ONLINE: Available online at the Archaeology Data Service website | ISBN/ISSN: - | PUBLICATION TYPE: Monograph in series | ID NUMBER: 11715)
