There has been an enormous amount of new building here in recent years. Ahead there were once brick arches to the left and a bridge over the canal, carrying the Great Northern Railway at roof level through Sneinton from Trent Lane Junction to Nottingham Victoria via London Road High Level Station and Weekday Cross Junction (now the site of the Nottingham Contemporary art gallery). It is hard now for those who do not remember it to envisage how much railway infrastructure has been swept away.
