Built for the Nottingham Brewery Company in 1899, at the same time Victoria Station was being built to the right of and behind the camera, The Rose of England is a joyous example of Fothergill's late style, with dormers, oriels, a balcony and a lot of fine brick, ashlar and terra-cotta work. This is the moderately restrained side elevation to Union Road. For an idea of the whole extravagant confection, click http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1024335 .
