Looking down from Wigwam Lane, the houses here were built in 2013. They are especially convenient for the town's railway station and tram stop.

Route 6 of the National Cycle Network goes along here but at this point it's unclear as to whether one should be on the pavement (possibly allocated as a shared cycle path?) or the road. Although this looks at this point like a major through route to somewhere Wigwam Lane is just for access to industrial units at Butler's Hill and is a no through road for motor vehicles.

Nowadays styled the Robin Hood Line, passenger trains run this way between Nottingham and Mansfield and on to Worksop. The original passenger service was withdrawn in 1964 but the line remained busy with coal trains heading south from Newstead Colliery. After the colliery closed in 1987, the opportunity was taken to reinstate passenger services which happened in stages between 1993 and 1998. The line is nowadays single track between Bestwood Park Junction and Kirkby South Junction. The brick building is the premises of SOS Tyres and Autocare.

This is a rather complicated scene showing Hucknall's one platform railway station opened in 1993 as a replacement for Hucknall Byron which closed almost 30 years earlier in 1964. To the right of that is the tram stop, a terminus on the NET network, first opened in 2004.

These two posters are on the platform at Hucknall station. The one on the right is a timetable for Robin Hood Line services. The one on the left is more special - a message from East Midlands Railway: 'We send our deepest condolences and sympathies to the Royal Family at this difficult time'.

Looking north along the Robin Hood Line, towards Mansfield and Worksop, from the bridge carrying Station Road across the railway line.
