Alongside the Hucknall Road Walkway
The walkway is in the bottom of the railway cutting, which typically has been populated with sycamore trees. However, the top of the bank retains a line of mature oak trees which formed a windbreak alongside Hucknall Road prior to the construction of the railway in the late 19th century.

The site of Marble Arch
This was the local name given to a farm track accommodation bridge under the railway, later providing pedestrian access into Bestwood Estate. It was a tall narrow brick arch of similar proportions to the central opening of the London monument, hence the name. It was quite dark and was demolished following the closure of the railway, the line of which is now the Hucknall Road Walkway. The Walkway is a multi-user route; there is an alternative ramp to the left of the embankment - cyclists don't have to use the steps!
