Giles Court, Rectory Road
West Bridgford's population rose from 293 in 1881 to 7,018 twenty years later. It is essentially a Victorian and Edwardian suburb, which is why the narrow strip of new houses running parallel to Stratford Road between Bridgford Road and Melton Road shows up so clearly on aerial photos. These flats stand where there was once a railway embankment, now levelled, which carried the Nottingham-Melton-Oakham-Corby-Kettering line on which the fastest trains from Nottingham Midland to London St Pancras ran. There was of course a skew bridge over Rectory Road; fifty years ago I would have stood underneath it to look in this direction.

West Bridgford: Musters Sports and Social Club
The Musters Tennis Club and the West Bridgford Bowling Club are based here. The Marlborough Court flats on the left were built on the levelled site of the Midland Railway embankment which until 1968 carried the quickest trains between Nottingham Midland and London St Pancras, via Melton Mowbray and Oakham.
