The busy main road (B587) from Derby to Melbourne, was evidently at one time less important than the now minor route from Kings Newton towards Repton. Wood End Lane is in the foreground. The B587 sweeps in from the left, and takes a sharp right turn by the white van. Straight ahead, strictly now a left turn, leads to Kings Newton.
