Looking down Mapperley Rise
At this point, Mapperley Rise begins to descend gently from Woodborough Road (behind the photographer) towards Sherwood; the descent becomes alarmingly steep a little further on.

Opposite the entrance/exit into Mapperley Rise the "Belle Vue" residential home for the care of individuals with dementia (opened in 2011) - on the site of the old "Belle Vue" pub - can be seen.

The former Majestic Cinema, Mapperley
Much has happened since I photographed the building in 2009 https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1197724 . By around 2018 it was occupied by The Haunted Museum, but this closed in 2020 due to the Covid pandemic. Permanent closure was announced in 2021 due to the condition of the building, the Museum having moved to new premises.
2020 also saw the Listing (Grade II) of the building by Historic England https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1472567 which will be a constraint on any new occupier. The building remained unoccupied at the time of this visit, but this has the advantage that the frontage is free of signage, allowing the architecture to express itself.
