Church of All Hallows, Gedling
The clock mechanism. A classic Smith of Derby frame, converted to electric operation. Two wires to the left pull the chime hammers, and one to the right operates the hour hammer. When a new bell frame was inserted in 1991, two of the ropes had to be led through the frame of the wooden cabinet.

Railway bridge over Jessops Lane, Gedling
The railway here is the Great Northern Railway's "back line", which turned through 180 degrees around the edge of greater Nottingham to head eventually west into Derbyshire. After closure as a through route in the early 1960s, this section survived to provide rail access to Gedling Colliery, which closed in 1991.

A view of Gedling Church from Ouse Dyke
The Ouse Dyke (not named on my map - an old 1:25000 First Series) winds its way down through Gedling, Netherfield and what used to be 'Colwick Sidings', eventually entering the river Trent at Burton Joyce (SK6441).

Gedling Church Steeple
Pevsner calls this 'One of the most remarkable steeples in Notts, historically, visually and archaeologically.'
It was, unusually, built as an entity between 1300 and 1320 in the Decorated style. The spire forms more than half the full height of the steeple and is particularly notable for the entasis (curvature) applied to correct perspective distortion.
The full sunlit view from this angle requires a summer evening to enjoy at its best.
