Former Mapperley Brickworks
Now covered by residential housing, in the sixties there were several ponds in this area resulting from the brick works where I used to collect newts.

A cyclist peddling along Woodborough Road (B684) in the direction of Mapperley at the junction of Woodthorpe Road on a wet April afternoon. The Mapperley Ridge radio transmitter towers above everything else. Adjacent to the transmitter is a brick-built house belonging to the Severn-Trent Water Authority and behind the (now unused) gates the raised profile of a covered reservoir can be seen.

Nottingham - NG3 (Mapperley)
A view of the junction of Belvoir Street with Woodborough Road, looking towards Mapperley. Whilst at a first glance this stretch of properties looks like a row of terraced houses, the builder working on the property with the "For Sale" sign attached to it had just uncovered a long rectangular shop sign under some rendering he had removed. An elderly man walking past it confirmed that it had been a "beer off" (an off-licence) when he had been a lad and that he had gone into it occasionally and bought sweets there too. In our conversation it transpired that at one time this had in fact been a parade of shops.

Nottingham - Mapperley NG3
Nottingham City Council's "Mapperley Community Centre" is visible on the left-hand side of Woodborough Road (B684) in the direction of the suburb of Mapperley. This very building was part of the Mapperley Brick Works, at whose entrance it stood. Many millions of its bricks were purchased for use elsewhere in Great Britain, including those used in the construction of St.Pancras Station.
