The green at Wood Grove
Part of the development of Calverton as a mining village in the 1950s. Originally this bit of open space looked out across agricultural land, behind the photographer.

Mansfield Lane
19th century housing shows that this is one of the established thoroughfares before the village was expanded to serve the colliery in the 1950s. Looking south from Park Road.

Park Road East
This marked the edge of the expansion of Calverton as a colliery village in the 1950s. The housing to the right is clearly publicly funded development (in this instance NCB), with 1970s private development on the left.

Broadfields
The name applies to the whole of this development to the north of Park Road East, with quite a network of roads sharing the same name. Apparently the name was intended to be Broomfields, as this shrub was prolific in the area before development; the actual name was the result of a typing error.

Calverton NG14, Notts.
St Wilfrid's Church on Main Street looking towards the public library and the shopping precinct, St Wilfrid's Square. Domesday book records show the existence of a church on this site in 1086 although what users and visitors see today stems from the late C13th and C14th, with the nave and tower having been rebuilt in 1763 and the chancel in 1835. The building is Grade-II listed with Grade I upgrading currently being sought.
