Wet Bridgford and Wilford Hill

Image: © John Sutton Taken: 29 Jul 2012

A very heavy shower had interrupted play on the third afternoon of the Nottinghamshire-Sussex match at Trent Bridge. This long zoom view of wet West Bridgford from the Radcliffe Road End shows in the foreground houses in the roads off Loughborough Road, and beyond them newer houses on the northern slope of Wilford Hill, which is topped by the chapel at the Southern Cemetery, about two miles away. Much of Bridgford was built in the late Victorian and Edwardian periods; expansion southwards to Edwalton and Wilford Hill came between and after the wars.
