The Talbot Inn at the side of Nottingham Road (the A60). The car in the picture is leaving Mansfield and heading towards Nottingham. The Earldom of Shrewsbury, in its second creation, featured many members of the Talbot family. George Talbot, who became the 6th Earl of Shrewsbury in 1590 became owner of nearby Rufford Abbey and his descendants continued to live there until 1938 when the house and land were largely sold off. It may be that this public house and Talbot Street - behind the photographer - have this association?
