The Kings Arms public house is seen dominating this corner site at its junction with Newgate Street. The town centre lies ahead. After a spell in Newgate Lane, in 1914 Mansfield Town Football Club moved to a large grassed area south of Ratcliffe Gate, that gloried in the name of "The Prairie" due to this being a wide open space.
