William Herbert Higginbottom – Nottingham’s Unknown Architect of Public Buildings

Discover the overlooked story of William Herbert Higginbottom, a little-known Nottingham architect whose work helped shape the city’s public landscape in the late Victorian and Edwardian eras. Although rarely credited today, Higginbottom played a significant role in designing and influencing buildings used for civic, social and community life.

This illustrated talk explores his career, surviving buildings, and the wider architectural context of a rapidly changing Nottingham. Through photographs, plans and local history, we uncover how his quiet legacy still forms part of the city we walk through every day.

A fascinating insight into Nottingham’s built heritage

and one of its forgotten designers.
