Looking along Redcliffe Road in the direction of Mansfield Road (the A60) from Mapperley Road that lies behind the photographer. Red Lane, as it was known until c.1870, was apparently "inaccessible during the winter months". Heavy brick-laden carts descending from Mapperley's brickworks would no doubt have contributed to the damage to this unmade road. On the left is the former coach house of Claremont House situated on neighbouring Elm Bank. The coach house is now a separate property that has been converted into a private house known as "Claremont Stables".
