People living in an area of Nottingham that has been named as one of its wealthiest say it has "a lot going for it". Data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) recently revealed the ten wealthiest areas of Nottingham.
Topping the list was the city centre and Trent Bridge area, but also making the top five was Wilford and Silverdale. Wilford itself has a history stretching back centuries, with the settlement Willesforde being featured in the Domesday Book.
The area is now surrounded by estates that have been built in more recent decades, with Silverdale being constructed in the 1950s and Compton Acres going up in the 1980s. Wilford was once a peaceful village surrounded by woodland, but these days one of the key selling points is the transport links taking its residents into the centre of Nottingham and further afield.
