Rock Hill, Mansfield, Notts.
It seems that John Bramwell (1815-1900) was the last person to live in any of the cave houses in this sandstone outcrop. Most of his adult life was spent living in a cave-house here. He and his wife Sarah had raised 10 children, all of whom were born in his abode. Only one had died during infancy and all of the others apparently survived into old age.

Ratcliffe Gate, Mansfield, Notts.
The Kings Arms public house is seen dominating this corner site at its junction with Newgate Street. The town centre lies ahead. After a spell in Newgate Lane, in 1914 Mansfield Town Football Club moved to a large grassed area south of Ratcliffe Gate, that gloried in the name of "The Prairie" due to this being a wide open space.

Ratcliffe Gate, Mansfield
A substantial area of yellow hatching marks the junction between Ratcliffe Gate (A6191), Great Central Road (leading off to the right in the foreground), and Newgate Lane (opposite). The 'Great Central Road' name is a reminder of Mansfield's largely forgotten 'other' railway that passed over Ratcliffe Gate here; it was closed completely in 1966 and little trace now remains.

Fisher Lane Park, Mansfield, Notts.
Mansfield's Skate Plaza, that opened on December 2009, represents a relatively new concept (the first one having been built in the USA in 2005). A Skate Plaza is designed to recreate the urban street environment which many riders and skaters enjoy that uses materials that are commonly found in urban environments e.g. granite marble which is good for grinding and sliding. This one is seen from a flight of steps plus a footpath that descends from Windsor Road and links to Fisher Lane. This point on Windsor Road is also where The Timberland Trail and the Mansfield Trail cross. Other parts of Mansfield feature in the distance.
