Florence Road
This terrace of houses was very much an outsider when built, being beyond the railway, but development caught up as can be seen by the variety of later housing styles.

Carlton NG4, Notts.
The foot of Shearing Hill (the A6211) is seen joining Burton Road (the B686) in this view through this former railway bridge. Traffic that has descended Shearing Hill and that is waiting to join the B686 would be facing Burton Road Recreation Ground.

Railway bridge over Burton Road, Gedling
The bridge carries the disused remnant of the Great Northern Railway's "back line" around the eastern suburbs of Nottingham that survived into the 1990s to serve Gedling colliery (closed 1991).

Burton Road railway bridge
This is the basic reason why a new bypass road has been built. There was always a significant traffic flow making the right turn like this car, which blocked traffic making for Nottingham City Centre due to the short approach lanes. The bridge carries a derelict railway which latterly served Gedling Colliery; there are proposals to use the alignment for a further route of the Nottingham tram as part of a major expansion of housing development. There is a bench mark http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5024111 on the left hand abutment.

Gedling, Coronation Walk and Burton Road, after Francis Frith
Taken to show how Francis Frith's view from c.1960 http://www.francisfrith.com/search/england/nottinghamshire/gedling/photos/gedling_G311009.htm looks today. An additional pair of semis have been built on what was open space to the left, and the garden wall and the trees have pretty well obscured the houses visible in Frith's picture.

Coronation Walk, Gedling
Judging by the architecture, the coronation in question is likely to have been that of Elizabeth II.

Gedling, Burton Road after Francis Frith
Taken to show how Francis Frith's view from c.1960 http://www.francisfrith.com/search/england/nottinghamshire/gedling/photos/gedling_G311014.htm looks today. Trees have replaced the flower beds on the near corner, there are new trees along the recreation ground to the right (not the ones on Frith's view which are at the kerb edge and have been removed at some stage) and those along the railway embankment now dwarf the railway bridge. The road junction now sports a fine set of traffic lights. At the time of Frith's view, the Colwick Loop Road had not been built, so the main road (Burton Road) was then the one coming in from the left and continuing straight ahead.
