DNA
Bioscience offers paternity testing and various types of DNA relationship testing
to the community of Nottingham and the surrounding area. As we have
dealt with a number of customers from Nottingham we wanted to also take
the opportunity of providing information about this city.
Located on the River Trent, northeast of Birmingham, the original Saxon
town was held by the Danes in the 9th century and became part of the
Danelaw. Nottingham was the scene of three parliaments in the 14th
century. In 1642, on Standard Hill, King Charles I raised his standard
at the outbreak of the English Civil Wars. Nottingham Castle stands on
that site. The link between Nottingham and Robin Hood is commemorated by
a statue on Castle Green. The city has a distinctive lace quarter. It is
the site of the University of Nottingham.
