Birkin Avenue: once a corner shop
A typical late Victorian three-storey block, with replacement windows and roof tiles, at the corner of Oldknow Street. A faded sign above the door of what was a corner shop or beer-off advertises Hooley's Noted - something or other (the rest is overpainted).

A derelict shop on Alfreton Road
I believe the derelict end-of-terrace shop on the corner of Alfreton Road and Collison Street was, in my post-war childhood in these parts, a dry cleaner’s owned by Nottingham Panthers’ Canadian ice hockey star Chick Zamick (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chick_Zamick ).
