Gospel Oak: Former Gospel Oak Grove

Image: © Nigel Cox Taken: 14 Feb 2010

This is about the only surviving remnant of a Victorian residential road called Gospel Oak Grove that ran around the west and south side of Lismore Circus, before much of the area was redeveloped in the 1960s following Second World War bomb damage. This section probably only survived because it is actually the bridge over the former Midland Railway below. The Ludham housing block is directly ahead, built over the top of the junction of Gospel Oak Grove with Lismore Road.
