One of the few
The pole on the right is one of (literally) a handful of traction poles used to support the old tramway and later trolleybus overhead wires. This one survived because it had some other cable attached to it. This has now been cut away, but presumably it's not worth the cost of removing the pole. This was Nottingham's final trolleybus route.
