Have the Archaeologists who worked on the castle read Nottingham Weekly Courant 1716 Nov.8 p12?
It seems to me on reading it that the Archaeologits were right when they summised that the owners may have had some money problems.

Hi deGrey
I am currently constructing a website called www.codnor.info and I am interested in the article you mentioned in the Nottingham Weekly Courant about a Glasshouse at Codnor. Do you have access to this article, are you able to scan it or maybe let me know how I might be able to get a copy? The information would be very useful when I come to do th earticle about th eGlasshouse Pub in Codnor.

Please advise
Regards Stuart
