The start (or end) of Mill Lane, an unsurfaced track descending from the B6026 road can be seen here on the left. On its way uphill (or downhill) it passes between the rear entrances of Huthwaite cemetery and "The Welfare (recreation) Ground". A row of half a dozen or so terraced houses known as "Colliery Cottages", associated with the former New Hucknall Colliery that existed until 1982, are situated behind the photographer's left shoulder. The Mill House Gardens housing development on the left (although not visible here) was completed some time ago (? date) and now the "Brierley Hills" housing development can be seen evolving on the right. Brierley Hill, Staffordshire is where some of the first miners in Huthwaite came from during the early 1870s.
