Princes Street - 2
Looking east from the junction with Victoria Street. The 19th century saw a huge increase in the amount of coal produced by this region. This led to a steady influx of mine workers and their families, attracted by the dangerous but well-paid work. Eastwood had to expand to meet the need. Barber Walker & Co built quadrangles of houses on this hillside to house the workforce at their mines just to the north. Image

Scargill Walk, Eastwood
Despite the mining associations locally, the name Scargill is unconnected with the 20th century miners' leader. There was a Scargill Street on this site before 1875. Worth observing is how little difference there is between the late 20th development on the left and the mid 19th century terraced houses at the end of the walk.

Princes Street, Eastwood
One of a group of streets known locally as "the squares" this now pedestrianised street of terraced houses was built by the local colliery company in the 1850s. DH Lawrence's home was nearby Image and he later described the houses as "sordid and hideous". They look very clean and smart today.

Eastwood, Albert St - NG16
A plaque on the side wall of this frozen food retail store at the junction of Albert Street and Nottingham Road flags up the fact that the Congregational Church that the Lawrence's once worshipped at stood on this spot. D.H. Lawrence's mother, Lydia, was a keen attender who sought to improve her spiritual and social life, and her children's, through her participation at it. Her husband, "a butty man" (an independent foreman miner, who led a small team of miners who worked for him) didn't aspire to the same dizzy heights and there was apparently a great deal of friction between husband and wife. There is a suggestion that they became less and less compatible and that Lydia tried to turn the children against their father. D.H. Lawrence certainly seems to have abandoned any religious convictions in his teens.
