The photograph doesn't really capture what is usually a sweeping view taking in the eastern edge of the Peak District, and Strawberry Bank, which is a previous claimant to the highest point in Notts (before exact measurements and mining spoil-heaps got in the way). At the foot of the hill is the crossroads with Kingsway, Station Street and the now-pedestrianised Lowmoor Road (Image) which forms the current centre of Kirkby.
