Looking east across the River Trent. This was once the wharf serving the village of Collingham, used for the movement of goods connected with the local agriculture and brick-making businesses. The house at the centre is still called Wharf Cottage, which reflects the history. Also known as Jolly Barge after the pub which once served the boatmen.
