The picture is taken from roughly where the north end of the southbound platform once was. The grassed area behind the railings was the site of sidings and a goods shed, used until closure of the Nottingham Suburban Railway in 1951. The main entrance to the station for passengers was on Kildare Road (offstage right). Beyond the modern brick house the line crossed The Wells Road on a huge lattice girder bridge supported by brick arches. For more history, see Image
