context_page_description: This is a list of halls of residence on the various campuses of the University of Nottingham in Nottingham, England.
  The University of Nottingham has a particularly well developed system of halls located on its campus. The halls acts a microcosms of the university at large and provide a community-level forum for the interaction of undergraduates, postgraduates and senior academics.
  As of 2020, incoming undergraduate students do not apply for a specific hall but a room type and a 'zone'; they can be allocated into any of the halls in that zone. The zones are as follows:
  Central Zone: Derby and Hugh Stewart
  North Zone: Cripps and Lenton & Wortley
  Sports Zone: Ancaster, Beeston, Nightingale, Rutland and Sherwood
  West Zone: Cavendish, Florence Boot and Willoughby
  Quiet Zone: Lincoln
  The halls are generally named either after counties, districts or places in the English East Midlands or significant people associated with the university. Beeston, Lenton, Lincoln, Derby, Rutland, Sherwood, Newark, Southwell, Ancaster and Melton halls fall into the former category; Hugh Stewart, Cripps, Cavendish, Nightingale, Florence Boot, Wortley and Willoughby into the latter.
