Of most historical interest is the early 19th-century house with framework-knitter's windows on its third storey (above the red car). These large windows were essential to give the hand-loom weavers enough light. The Alfreton Road frontage of the house is shown in Alan Murray-Rust's photograph of the Alma Inn http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1044403. This photograph is also notable in showing the then home, on the left, of the alluring fellow student who shared the Forest Fields Grammar School 0-level English prize with me in 1964.
