Post-industrial Radford and Lenton (once home to Player's cigarettes and Raleigh cycles) are now a land of student flats. The ones on the left are part of the Manor Villages estate. In the distance is the junction with Faraday Road and St Peter's Street, beyond which the A609 becomes Wollaton Road and climbs to cross the Nottingham-Mansfield railway where, until 1964, Radford Station stood.
