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.

Tramroad bridge
This substantial bridge carried a relatively minor road (Sherwood Vale) over the incline of the tramroad down from the Mapperley brickworks to Sherwood Station. The angle of the incline is clear in this view from below the bridge.

Brickworks tramroad
The tramroad came down an incline from Mapperley brickworks under the bridge to Sherwood Station where products would be transhipped on to the railway network. This is the most significant remaining structure associated with the extensive brickmaking industry in east Nottingham, based on the local clays and mudstones.

Sherwood Vale: the parapets of Bridge No 11
The blue brick parapets topped the Nottingham Suburban Railway's Bridge No 11, an arched 40ft span. Sherwood Station was to the right (for its site see Image]) and the deep cutting to the north of Sherwood Tunnel, now entirely choked with trees, to the left. Alan Murray-Rust's Image] shows the bridge from what was once rail level.

Sherwood Station site
Without the bridge in the background, there would be no clue to the fact that 60 years ago I would have been standing in the middle of a railway.
