Basford: gas depot

This space was once occupied by the huge Nottingham Corporation Gas Works, of which only the two large gas holders remain - one is in the middle distance, left of centre. To the right is the NET tram depot at Wilkinson Street. On the skyline are the former Shipstone's Brewery (left) and - much further away - the tower blocks on Hartley Road in Radford.
