J. B. Spray & Co.
I know nothing about this company, but it occupied a fine building on Russell Street. The mill opposite is being demolished Image There were interesting goings-on here two years ago: http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/regions/nottinghamshire/2006/07/344121.html.
Built in 1870 as the Nottingham lace and general textile industry spread out from the Lace Market area of the city into larger buildings.

Goodbye to a mill
Some of the Lace mills on or near the Alfreton Road have survived as apartment conversions or are in use as small industrial units. This one on the corner of Russell Street and Forest Road West however has not been so lucky and is being demolished.

Russell Street: J H Spray & Co
"J H Spray & Co, c 1870, five storeys with topshops and projecting stair towers" (Elain Harwood in the Pevsner Architectural Guide to Nottingham). The building is currently unoccupied, perhaps waiting to become accommodation for students of nearby Nottingham Trent University, like other lace factories in the area (see Image]).

Now student accommodation, this was originally a lace works, with north-light clerestory attic finishing rooms. The cement pattern on the end gable is a clue to the size (and chimneys) of the adjoining building which preceded the current one.
