Across St Ann's
Houses like these replaced the Victorian terraces of the St Ann's district in the 1970s, the City Council learning from the mistaken deck-access flats experiment of the 1960s (the flats at Balloon Wood, Old Basford and Hyson Green were demolished by the early 1980s and replaced by low-density housing). St Andrew's Church on Mansfield Road shows on the skyline, above the large textile factory on St Ann's Hill Road.

Plantaganet Street: The Working Man's Retreat
George Gill (1778-1855) was a philanthropist whose interests lay in education and the welfare of the elderly. He founded the People's College and built The Working Man's Retreat (retirement dwellings for the deserving) in 1852. It is in the satisfyingly plain style of many Nottingham buildings of the middle years of the nineteenth century, but not a listed building. The picture was taken against the light on a very sunny morning in late June.
