Survivor on Nottingham Road
This is the last remaining traction pole from former tramway and trolleybus days which still retains the cast base. It survives because of the attached telephone wires, although whether this is still functional is doubtful.

Former Futurist Cinema
Since closing as a cinema this building has had a variety of uses but now stands unused. What is to become of it? The cinema opened on July 26, 1937 and seated 1,294 including 220 in the balcony. It closed in March 1976 but reopened its balcony as a trial later that year. This was short lived and the final screening was the Sound of Music on August 13, 1977.

Railway and tramway at Basford
The two tracks in the foreground are the Nottingham-Mansfield-Worksop Robin Hood Line, originally built by the Midland Railway in 1848, the two beyond the green railings the NET tramway. A southbound tram has just left Basford tram stop (behind the camera - see Image]). The Mansfield stone bridge, which dates from the 1870s (it replaced a level crossing), carries Church Street over the railway, the tramway and the River Leen. Beyond it, a newer (1930s) bridge carries Western Boulevard, the ring road. The dark wooden building on the right is the former railway goods warehouse; what was the railway goods yard is now a small industrial estate. For a view from the other side of Church Street Bridge, see Image
