Brinsley is a former mining village. Although still surrounded by productive farmland, nowadays it is more a commuter village for Nottingham and other local towns. Hall Lane is within the conservation area of what local people know as 'Old Brinsley'. New Brinsley is a kilometre or so to the north, although both settlements are continuous with each other. Stoney Lane is the left turn by the yellow grit bin and is a 'dead end'. Hall Lane is another 'dead end' that eventually leads to Hall Farm. The White Lion is one of six public houses in Brinsley and New Brinsley.
