The club is home to a fitness centre, Gedling Colliery Cricket Club and Gedling Miners' Welfare FC, but I took the picture as it shows a friend, a member of Revival, the forthcoming attraction.

Plains Road Vicinity, Mapperley, Notts.
This grand looking property, set back from Plains Road, seems likely to have been a residential property called "Tree Tops House". It is currently a restaurant. Old maps however, suggest that it might originally have been known as Arnold Mill House.
