Hucknall - Nottinghamshire
Two churches can be seen on the other side of Watnall Road (B6009) in this picture that was taken from the Police Station forecourt obliquely opposite, albeit that the nearest one has been converted into a shop. Given that the other church in the picture is Watnall Road Baptist Church and that the other traditional Christian denominations have their own premises elsewhere in Hucknall, it has proved difficult to date to deduce who owned and used this particular church in the past.

Old gas lamp
I'm not sure how old this is, but the reference to a barbers Shop certainly predates the current use of the building which is a sports trophies shop.

Hucknall Baptist Church
A fine display of Victorian Gothic-inspired architecture, dating from MDCCCLXXVL according to the date stone http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1906378 . Presumably a mistake for 1876.

Check the date!
Memorial stone, Hucknall Baptist Church. Although a year date in roman numerals is common, the day date is less so.
Careful study shows that the mason got carried away when inscribing the year, and has turned the final I into an L. Taken literally, this would mean a date of 1875 plus 50 years.

These houses are clearly one step up from the basic miners' cottages.

Colliery Houses
Built around 1875 by the colliery company for its workers. The distinctive use of red and black bricks is very much of its period.
