Redhill, NG5, Notts.
The west elevation of the mortuary chapels building with its twin chapels. The main entrance/exit to/from the A60, i.e. the main Nottingham-Mansfield being a two minute walk through the archway. Arnold Cemetery was set aside for this purpose in 1877 and originally covered a four acre site. The first burial here seems to have been conducted here in July 1879. It is still in regular use although various extension plots have been added to the photographer's left.

Redhill, Arnold, Notts
A short stretch of the A60, i.e. the main Nottingham to Mansfield Road. Just ahead the bus is passing Redhill Cemetery on its left. The columns at the entrance to this short cul-de-sac (now known as Birch Lea) serves 8-10 private houses. These columns seem suggestive of a former private estate and may well have been the entrance to the former "Red Hill Lodge", a large residential property set in 10 acres of grounds. A property bearing this name in this vicinity was once owned by Dr George Elder, a former surgeon who during his professional career held an appointment at The Samaritan Hospital for Women, Marylebone, London.

Redhill, NG5, Notts.
The A60, i.e. the main Nottingham-Mansfield road is visible through an archway created by the twin mortuary chapels, one of each of these chapels on either side of a roadway through this construction. Arnold Cemetery was set aside for this purpose in 1877 and originally covered a four acre site. The first burial here was conducted in July 1879. It is still in regular use although various extension plots have been added behind the photographer's left shoulder. Full capacity, it seems, may be achieved within the next 10 years. Meanwhile, the local authority is giving serious consideration to building the 'first ever' crematorium within the city boundary, near to the Travellers' Rest pub, Mapperley Plain.

Classic paired chapels with central carriageway, late 19th century. It is not clear whether the tower ever carried a spire.
