The Topknot Hair and Beauty establishment, with its crow-stepped gables and vaguely Baltic look, has been a Trent Bridge landmark for a century, in former times carrying a large advertisement for Pork Farms pork pies. The half-timbered house to the left is the first of the rather grand Edwardian houses on Fraser Road which back on to Victoria Embankment. In the days of trolleybuses, this was the stop for the 45 Trent Bridge to Wollaton service, which, like the 41 Cinderhill and 43 Bulwell Market terminated and turned just to the left of here, on the Embankment, where the majority of the city-bound stops were.
