Going to school in St Ann's
Now Welbeck Walk, this was once Alfred Street, one of the main thoroughfares in St Ann's, whose slum terraces were demolished in the 1970s and replaced by low-density housing. In the background is Watson Fothergill's Woodborough Road Baptist Church, now the Pakistan Centre (see Image]).

Former chapel, Woodborough Road, Nottingham
Recognisably by Watson Fothergill. Built as a Baptist chapel in 1893. The lofty tower has an interesting variety of roofs. Grade II listed. Watson Fothergill, or Fothergill Watson as he began life, is Nottingham's Victorian architectural superstar. Walking around the city, it's not long before his idiosyncratic buildings jump out. Drawing on English traditions in a style sometimes labelled as Domestic Revival, his copious use of polychromatic bands of stone, timberwork and carved detail are very distinctive. In lesser hands, a mass of features results in an overwrought jumble, but Fothergill, despite apparently never working outside Nottinghamshire, and rarely even outside the city, was clearly skilled enough to blend everything together successfully. For a full list of his buildings, see http://www.geograph.org.uk/article/The-Buildings-of-Watson-Fothergill.

Nottingham - NG3
The lower end (i.e the city centre end) of Woodborough Road (B684). This new medium-sized housing estate, completed at the end of 2011, lies immediately beyond the ex-Woodborough Road Baptist Church on the left of this picture. The ex-church now houses a Pakistani cultural centre. No.237 Woodborough Road, a house that used to exist on this stretch of road, was one of Arthur Mee's many homes. Mee (1875-1943), the second of ten children, moved here in 1889 when he was 14 yrs old. He matured into a prolific writer and is perhaps most famous for writing and editing the serialised publications "The Children's Encyclopaedia" and "The Children's Newspaper", although he was also highly regarded as journalist and editor within the London-based newspaper industry. He died in Eynsford, Kent in 1943.
