St Mary's Gate, Nottingham

The early name for the street was Seynt Maregate (), taking its name from St Mary's Church which is at the southern end. In the late Middle Ages the street housed workshops for the production of Nottingham alabaster. The street housed the old Theatre Royal which was built in 1760 on the site of an older establishment. It was held on lease for many years by Robertson and Manly, managers of a company of comedians who visited Nottingham three or four times per year. The theatre was sold in 1854 to J.F.
