Goodbye to a mill
Some of the Lace mills on or near the Alfreton Road have survived as apartment conversions or are in use as small industrial units. This one on the corner of Russell Street and Forest Road West however has not been so lucky and is being demolished.

Russell Street: J H Spray & Co
"J H Spray & Co, c 1870, five storeys with topshops and projecting stair towers" (Elain Harwood in the Pevsner Architectural Guide to Nottingham). The building is currently unoccupied, perhaps waiting to become accommodation for students of nearby Nottingham Trent University, like other lace factories in the area (see Image]).

A surviving factory chimney
Most of the chimneys of the former lace factories on Russell, Newdigate and Gamble Streets have been demolished, but there is what Elain Harwood (in the Pevsner Architectural Guide) describes as "a majestic survivor at Albert Mill, a rebuilding by Arthur W Brewill, dated 1893; now flats." For a view of it from Alfreton Road, see Image J H Spray & Co's factory is on the right, behind the modern block.

J. B. Spray & Co.
I know nothing about this company, but it occupied a fine building on Russell Street. The mill opposite is being demolished Image There were interesting goings-on here two years ago: http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/regions/nottinghamshire/2006/07/344121.html.
Built in 1870 as the Nottingham lace and general textile industry spread out from the Lace Market area of the city into larger buildings.
