Telegraph pole alongside Lambley Lane
This is a rare survivor, from railway days. Clearly the wires were carried above the road rather than through the bridge, so a particularly tall pole was needed.

Railway trackbed, Gedling (2)
Maps generally still seem to mark this as a railway line, though here, where it passes under Lambley Lane, the track appears to have been lifted. This was 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 (a short distance behind the photographer), which closed in 1991.

Lambley Lane railway bridge
The bridge does indeed have a severe hump, and the presence of the junction with Jessops Lane just on the far side makes all the road signs very pertinent.

Lambley Lane bridge
Looking towards Netherfield. When the Nottinghamshire coalfield was at its height, this line would have been busy with coal trains coming down to the marshalling yard at Colwick, and the line was double track. In later years only Gedling Colliery was served and the line was reduced to a single track which was essentially a long siding.

Lambley Lane, Gedling
Seen from the end of Jessops Lane, right on the edge of the greater Nottingham conurbation. On the left, the slag heaps of Gedling colliery (closed 1991) can just be seen in the distance.
