Huthwaite, Sutton-in-Ashfield NG17, Notts
"The Huthwaite (miners') Welfare (recreation) Ground" is sandwiched between Columbia Street and Mill Lane, an unsurfaced track from where this picture was taken. Both of these plummet downhill from the main road that passes through Huthwaite i.e. the B6026. This land was donated for community use by the New Hucknall Colliery Company and the original access to it when it first opened in 1920 was via a set of gates off Columbia Street. The newer 'main entrance', off the B6026, was created later. A path, beneath this one, connected these two thoroughfares and was regularly walked by coal miners going to and from the New Hucknall Colliery.

Huthwaite - All Saints Church
Built in 1902/03, this was the first proper Anglican church in Huthwaite. Previously, Huthwaite people had to travel to the parish church in Sutton-in-Ashfield or, from 1868, they could attend a mission church set up in the south wing of the newly-built Blackwell Road Schools. When the foundation stone was laid in 1902, it was said that "the church will be of fine proportions, and dignified in its architectural character and, when complete, and will be dedicated to All Saints". The New Hucknall Colliery Company gave the rock of which the Church is built. The Church was "believed to be the only one in the country built from rock taken from a depth of 400 yards below the surface. The pillars and facings are of Mansfield stone". The architect was Mr. C. Ford Whitcombe, of London, and the building was undertaken by Mr. A. B. Clarke of Nottingham. Please see http://www.huthwaite-online.net/hucknall/press/1902-foundations.php and
