Looking down Southampton Street
Until the 1960s, St Anns was a warren of densely packed terraced housing from the first half of the 19th century. This was all swept away in a major redevelopment from the late 1960s onwards.

Ford's Avenue Entrance, St Ann's Allotments
The allotments incorporate Hunger Hill, Stonepit Coppice and Gorseyclose Gardens, together comprising some 700 plots. Together they form a Grade II* Listed Garden https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1001479?section=official-list-entry , the reason being that their history goes back as far as the early 17th century. Most such partitioned garden areas disappeared with the expansion of urban areas in the 19th century, and the gardens are considered important both for their history and the extent of the remaining area.

Blue Bell Hill Road
This point is where the 1970s redevelopment of St Anns stopped, and existing buildings stayed in place. However, even the terraced houses at the top of the hill would have been superior to the bulk of those replaced, and worth retaining.

Hungerhill Gardens
Hungerhill Gardens are reputedly the largest and oldest allotments gardens in the world. Unfortunately only the neglected plots are visible. The well tended ones are protected by high fencing and hedges. In the Victorian times many plots had well constructed brick chalets which the residents of east Nottingham used as a refuge and escape from the city. I am sure many of these chalets still exist but was disappointed I couldn't see any. Hungerhill Gardens have been listed as Grade II* by English Heritage.
