New Basford, North Northingham – patterns of coverage of graffiti in the area can reveal insights into the lives of those within that particular community. For example many of the street corners, particularly those that had once housed a local shop, have much more graffiti, with examples dating back to the early 1900s, and where the sunnier sides of streets sometimes have more graffiti. The graffiti thus begins to reveal patterns of the authors’/taggers’ movement and play within the area.
