The Nottinghamshire Heritage Gateway provides a guide to the heritage resources of the county, and a history of Nottinghamshire featuring the latest research.

The information is arranged through a series of research pathways, organised into the following groups: places, people, themes and events. The pathways provide a brief overview of a subject area and a list of key resources for further research, arranged by type of source material.
