A view of the A611 (Hucknall Rd) as it descends to cross the junction with Haydn Rd, before ascending the other side of the valley towards the city centre. The factory on the right-hand side is currently occupied by "Rachel Ellen", a company manufacturing greetings cards. Immediately beyond it is a two storey office block that forms part of a local Severn Trent Water Authority depot. This depot occupies a large corner site at the Hucknall Rd/Haydn Rd junction. The Bagthorpe Water Works, reservoir and pumping station first developed this site in 1857.
