A "Robin Hood Line" train heading towards Newstead, in the vicinity of the "Top Car Park" a free car park that serves the Portland Park Nature Reserve. A pedestrian has left the "Top Car Park" vicinity and is walking along Lindley's Lane. Lindley's Lane continues on the other side of the bridge in the direction of Kirkby-in-Ashfield. The 'new' houses on the other side of the railway line are situated on Sylvan Avenue.

Waste ground near Portland Park
Looking south-east to the outskirts of Kirkby-in-Ashfield with the railway embankment running along the left. This area of land between the embankment and Portland Park seems to be unused. The limestone rock under foot feels like rubble and is probably not suitable for farming.

Portland Park Nature Reserve NG17, Notts.
Part of the newly resurfaced "Top Path". An elderly resident explained to me that when he was a boy, 75+ years ago, this was a 10 foot deep quarried area known to local lads as "The Rocks" and that during the past "xyz" years it was used as an official tip and gradually filled in, before top soil was deposited on top of it. The 6th Duke of Portland gave the whole of this 10 hectare (25 acre) site to the Urban District Council in 1914 for recreational use, to commemorate his 25th wedding anniversary and his son's 21st birthday.

Portland Park Nature Reserve NG17, Notts.
The resurfacing of this, the "Top Car Park", seems almost complete. An elderly resident explained to me that when he was a boy, 75+ years ago, this was a 10 foot deep quarried area known to local lads as "The Rocks" and that during the past "xyz" years it was used as a tip and gradually filled in, before top soil was deposited on top of it.
