Nottingham Building Society is a building society founded in 1849 by a group led by Samuel Fox (1781–1868), a Quaker and prominent local grocer.
The purpose of the society was to promote the construction of a better class of dwellings, suitable for the working and middle classes, as well as provide a safe and profitable place for small savings.
In 1970 the Nottingham Building Society acquired the Grantham Building Society.
The Nottingham Building Society was one of the first financial institutions to introduce online banking in 1983, with its Homelink service on Prestel. It is a member of the Building Societies Association.
The company has several branches across Nottingham including in the city centre on Parliament Street, Beeston, Bulwell, Mapperley, Sherwood on Mansfield Road, and Wollaton. It has many of its branches in the county of Nottinghamshire, Hertfordshire and others in Lincolnshire, Derbyshire and Sheffield.
