Former Futurist Cinema
Since closing as a cinema this building has had a variety of uses but now stands unused. What is to become of it? The cinema opened on July 26, 1937 and seated 1,294 including 220 in the balcony. It closed in March 1976 but reopened its balcony as a trial later that year. This was short lived and the final screening was the Sound of Music on August 13, 1977.

Survivors on Nottingham Road
The short pole is one of Nottingham's traditional and distinctive fire hydrants. The pole behind is one of the very few remaining overhead support poles from tramway and trolleybus days.

NatWest bank, Basford
This rather grand piece of architecture is situated at the junction of Nottingham Road (left) and Valley Road. Despite the relative lack of other retail premises in the area, and its fairly inaccessible location, it still appears to function as a bank.

The Futurist, Basford
A former cinema that is something of a local landmark, this building's current usage is unknown to me. It fronts onto Valley Road (part of Nottingham's outer ring road) close to its junction with Nottingham Road, and lends its name to the bus stops on Valley Road close to this point.

Survivor on Nottingham Road
This is the last remaining traction pole from former tramway and trolleybus days which still retains the cast base. It survives because of the attached telephone wires, although whether this is still functional is doubtful.
