This is at the corner of the old Alfreton Road and Plantation Side, looking towards the footbridge over the railway where there were once a level crossing and a signal box. This road became a side street when Bobbers Mill bridge was built in the 1930s to carry Alfreton Road over the Nottingham to Mansfield railway. Lindley & Lindley made nylon stockings. Latterly the buildings were leased to a number of businesses.
