Tramroad bridge
This substantial bridge carried a relatively minor road (Sherwood Vale) over the incline of the tramroad down from the Mapperley brickworks to Sherwood Station. The angle of the incline is clear in this view from below the bridge.

Brickworks tramroad
The tramroad came down an incline from Mapperley brickworks under the bridge to Sherwood Station where products would be transhipped on to the railway network. This is the most significant remaining structure associated with the extensive brickmaking industry in east Nottingham, based on the local clays and mudstones.

Nottingham, NG5 - Sherwood
The front entrance of Woodthorpe Grange in Woodthorpe Grange Park. The house was built in 1874 as a family home for Henry Ashwell, a businessman in the bleaching, dyeing and finishing trade. In 1889, the Nottingham Suburban Railway was built running north to south across and under the estate. Although he was compensated, Ashwell didn't like this and he sold the grange to Edward Parry, who had designed the railway that split the estate. In 1905, Parry sold the estate to Godfrey Small, a Nottingham city councillor and then in 1921, Small sold the house to Nottingham City Council for £15,000 using a donation given by Sir Jesse Boot. The estate was opened to the public as Woodthorpe Grange Park in 1922. The house provides departmental offices for a Nottingham City Council.
