The bus into town may be of interest to bus enthusiasts, but I had come to see the red-brick wall on the right, once the parapet of the bridge over the Great Northern Railway line from Nottingham to Derby, known as The Back Line as it looped round the east and north of the city instead of taking the direct route to the west chosen forty years earlier by the Midland Railway. This section of The Back Line closed in 1960.
