Cross Street, NOTTINGHAM, NG5 7AX

A parade of shops with residential accommodation on Stanhope Crescent which is off Cross Street, Arnold. Since early/mid 2023 these premises no longer host the free glossy "NG" magazine business and a white goods retail outlet and as of November 2023 they remain empty. Cross Street, a busy road linking Mansfield Road (the A60) and the centre of Arnold, lies a stone's throw away, behind the photographer.

With the Home Brewery tower in the distance.

This G.P. practice operates in a building constructed on some land that once belonged to the former "Pegasus and the Flying Horse" public house (now "Sprinters", a steak house). This is the view from the closed end of Furlong Street, a cul-de-sac. Arnold's High Street is a few metres ahead, at the far end of the health centre's car park, although it cannot be accessed through the car park.

With Arnold's High Street a mere 2-3 minute walk away behind the photographer, this is the view towards the 'footpath only' section of Furlong Street. This lane is named after its association with a non-conformist chapel that previously existed at this end of this lane.

6-8 ft behind the photographer is a "bollard-ed" T junction that links to a footpath-only section of Furlong Street. This is the view towards Arnold's main shopping centre. A section of the High Street is situated beyond the wheelie bin in the distance. The name Chapel Lane derives from the existence of a (long-demolished) Wesleyan Methodist Chapel that was once situated behind the photographer.

A classroom block at Redhill Academy, formerly Redhill Comprehensive School, and part of Arnold Leisure Centre on the left are seen here from Cherry Close.

A former Wesleyan Reform Church at the junction of Furlong Street, on which several vans are parked, and Burford Street with a 'No Through Road' sign. This corner plot is identified on historical maps (c.1887) as boasting a "Mission Room" or a 'Gospel Mission Room". This latter day version of the church closed in 2016, affected by a dwindling congregation. It was sold at auction in 2017 and following its demolition the church is due to be replaced by a small number of terraced houses. High Street is a short walk away, at the eastern end of Burford Street, i.e. within 2-3 minutes.

A former Wesleyan Reform Church at the junction of Furlong Street and Burford Street. The latter, a cul-de-sac, lies on the other side of the church and leads - within minutes - to Arnold's High Street. This former church is identified on historical maps (c.1887) as a "Mission Room" or a 'Gospel Mission Room". It closed in 2016, affected by a dwindling congregation, and was sold at auction in 2017. Following its demolition the church is due to be replaced by a small number of terraced houses. On the left, signposted by a "School" road sign, is a Bestwood Avenue, a residential street that also hosts a secondary entrance into Arnold Mill Nursery and Primary School.

A former Wesleyan Reform Church at the junction of Burford Street and Furlong Street. Furlong Street runs from east to west in front of the tall semi-detached house ahead. This corner plot is identified on historical maps (c.1887) as boasting a "Mission Room" or a 'Gospel Mission Room". The church closed in 2016, affected by a dwindling congregation and was sold at auction in 2017. Following its demolition the church is due to be replaced by a small number of terraced houses. Arnold's High Street is a 2-3 minute walk away behind the photographer, whereas in the distance, a secondary entrance into Arnold Mill Nursery and Primary School can be reached at the far end of Bestwood Avenue.

Redhill Road turns to the left here in front of the entrance into Cherry Close (an unadopted cul-de-sac). Redhill Academy, formerly Redhill Comprehensive School, is seen on the right.
