Corner semis on Edwards Lane Council Estate
This design appears to have been used across many Nottingham council estates between the mid-1920s through to the late 1940s (as here). Usually they occupy corner plots at junctions, with the two houses characteristically belonging to different streets. Earlier examples may be pebble-dashed or tile-hung rather than having exposed brickwork.

Bedale Road, 1949
This picture was taken by the then owner of the house, my uncle Harry Lees, a headmaster. It shows his mother, Helen, who had been widowed since the 1890s and lived with him until her death in the early 1950s. Compare this picture with Image

Sherwood/Daybrook: Peggy's Park
The gate, designed by young people from Edwards Lane Community Centre, reflects the place's relatively recent past, as part of the Great Northern Railway's Nottingham-Derby railway, known as the Back Line. An information board gives a good potted history of the line, with pictures. Though in the Sherwood area of the City of Nottingham, the park is not far from the site of Daybrook Station.

Demolition rubble on site of Haywood School
Haywood School was demolished not long after it was closed. Currently (2013) there are informal planning guidelines for it to be redeveloped for housing (see Evening Post story http://www.nottinghampost.com/Plans-100-family-homes-Sherwood-school-site-step/story-16559833-detail/story.html ). The Southern part of the site is on the line of Nottingham Suburban Railway.

Site of former council housing off Rosecroft Drive
There were three blocks of maisonettes containing 36 dwellings (69-139 Rosecroft Drive) located here until around 2008. The maisonettes are an unusual building type in the housing stock of Nottingham Borough Council. Existing examples are located on Abbey Bridge, Marchwood Close and Kibworth Court. I presume that the individual flats are single-aspect (i.e., back-to-back) given the size of the buildings, number of flats and doorways located on all sides of the building.
