The Engine House public house, Burgass Road
This public house was built on the site of The Nottingham Patent Brick Company (see -Image) and incorporated this rather large and old horizontal single cylinder steam engine. This was possibly c1850 and installed secondhand in 1868 and worked here for 98 years - a very creditable performance. The cylinder is 21" bore x 66" stroke and the flywheel is 16' diameter and had been adapted for rope drive. The engine was removed from the pub in 1982 and is being slowly re-erected at Nottingham Industrial Museum.

Bus in the Brickyard Estate, Thorneywood – 1986
In the run-up to the deregulation of bus services in October 1986, City of Nottingham Transport introduced a series of ‘Accessline’ services using small buses to reach areas that could not be served by full size buses. The idea was that these areas would not be attractive to possible competitors after deregulation and that passengers would be attracted to use these localised services rather than walk to main roads. These services were never economically viable and in most cases, including this route, services were withdrawn soon after deregulation and have not been replaced since.
