From the Sun Inn, Eastwood, Notts.
The phone mast dominates the view from the Sun Inn to the detriment of the immediate area. Makes the supermarket appear elegant by default.

174 Nottingham Road, Eastwood
A commendable modern example of traditional brickwork, the whole side of the house, including the outhouse, being done in Flemish bond. Also incorporated is a polychrome brick rendering of the Phoenix symbol associated with D H Lawrence.

Nottingham Road, Eastwood
Eastwood has been by-passed for many years but the road here was once part of the A610 between Nottingham and Heanor. The various towns and villages on the route - Nuthall, Kimberley, Giltbrook, Eastwood, Langley Mill and Heanor - long since ran into each other forming a continuous urban corridor. This is Eastwood, a workaday former mining town that has become famous on the back of its D H Lawrence connection. At one time it would have been difficult to find any reference to Lawrence here - his notoriety after the Lady Chatterley obscenity trial of 1960 made him an embarrassment in this socially conservative community - but that has all changed now. Many businesses cash in on the connection including the micropub on the left here which is called 'Gamekeeper's' (a reference to Oliver Mellors, the principal character in 'Lady Chatterley's Lover'). The pub opened in 2017 in a shop that used to sell mobility scooters. On this day it was holding a beer festival in the garden at the back. On the opposite side of the street the sign for the Wellington, a Greene King pub, can just be seen.
