Woodthorpe flats from Mapperley Rise

Sherwood Station site
Without the bridge in the background, there would be no clue to the fact that 60 years ago I would have been standing in the middle of a railway.

Sherwood Vale: the parapets of Bridge No 11
The blue brick parapets topped the Nottingham Suburban Railway's Bridge No 11, an arched 40ft span. Sherwood Station was to the right (for its site see Image]) and the deep cutting to the north of Sherwood Tunnel, now entirely choked with trees, to the left. Alan Murray-Rust's Image] shows the bridge from what was once rail level.

Bus at Winchester Court
This picture complements the modern version Image
The location is not identical, because when the service first started in 1986 it used the garage road to the south of Winchester Court, as this was the only adequate route. The concept of a regular bus service being routed through a garage yard like this probably would not occur to most people!
This is one of a series of views featuring buses in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=2114547&displayclass=slide

Mapperley Rise
Or more appropriately 'descent' in this direction. One of the many steep roads in the north east sector of Nottingham resulting from the heavily incised valleys in the local mudstones. It links Mapperley (on top) with Sherwood below.
