East from Woodyard Lane railway bridge
Since John Sutton took this view https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2473446 in 2011, some of the blocks of flats in the distance have been demolished and there has been considerable tree growth alongside the railway.

East from Woodyard Lane railway bridge
The line from Radford Junction (ahead) to Trowell, on the Erewash Valley Line, was built as a short cut for trains to and from the north, avoiding the bottleneck at Toton; it also served Wollaton Colliery. This is the view back towards the city, with some of the rooftops of Beechdale Estate on the left and Radford and its high-rise flats on the skyline. Years ago that skyline was dominated by Players cigarette factory, long demolished. The bridge over the railway just visible in the distance carries Western Boulevard.

Woodyard Lane - the Wollaton End
This bridleway links Wollaton and the Beechdale Estate. Fifty years or more ago, this was a good place for eleven-year-olds: you could collect engine numbers from the bridge over the Radford-Trowell line at the top of the slope ahead, or fish for newts in the canal, which the lane had once crossed just behind the camera. The Nottingham Canal north of Lenton was abandoned in 1937, but its course and the decaying locks were not cleared away in these parts until the 1980s. Torvill Close - named for Nottingham's Olympic ice-skating champion - parallels its course. Alan Murray-Rust's photos, including Image] and Image], show what little remains of the canal in Wollaton.
