A pub no more
Just behind the road closed sign is a small green area. This used to be the site of the public house "The Sir Brian Robertson". I lived very close to here some 50+ years ago and the area is now very different.

Is it because it is early in the morning and the various businesses have not yet opened, or have many of them closed?

Roe Walk
Some 50+ ears ago this was Roe Street but all of the terraced houses have been demolished, and the area has undergone some regeneration. This all happened over 40 years ago and many of the shops around here now seem shut up.

Pear Tree Library, Derby
A Carnegie Library.
A Carnegie library is a library built with money donated by Scottish-American businessman and philanthropist Andrew Carnegie. 2,509 Carnegie libraries were built between 1883 and 1929, including some belonging to public and university library systems. 1,689 were built in the United States, 660 in Britain and Ireland, 125 in Canada, and others in Australia, New Zealand, Serbia, the Caribbean, and Fiji. Few towns that requested a grant and agreed to his terms were refused. When the last grant was made in 1919, there were 3,500 libraries in the United States, nearly half of them built with construction grants paid by Carnegie.[Wikipaedia]

The Vulcan Arms
A pub that is still open for business, but not at the moment as it is quite early in the morning before opening time. This pub is never likely to open early as the police station for the area is about 40 metres away.
