Best Answer

At its peak the lace industry in Nottingham employed 14000 women and 6000 men. This is where the old myth that there are more eligible women than men in Nottingham originates from. The numbers became even more lop-sided when the First World War broke out in 1914, but (...and listen carefully lads), I can confirm that this is no longer the case today.
