Re-roofing Chesil Cottages
This part of Radford originally developed near the railway station in the last quarter of the 19th century. It expanded in the 1930s when these council houses were built, and new houses like the one in the background on the right replaced some of the Victorian ones in the 1970s. When I was a boy this area was locally known as Sodom.

Re-roofing in Kennington Road
A drab and misty September morning in an area of Radford once known as Sodom, as older Nottinghamians may recall. Many of the Victorian terraces at the Wollaton Road end of this area were demolished in the 1970s, but the council houses built in the late 1930s remain.

Radford: Medway Street
The white building in the centre is where Pearce's ice cream was once made. Older Nottinghamians will remember it clearly - bright white vanilla, with tiny shards of ice in it. The building is now occupied by another ice cream maker, Coronato Bros. The colourful building in the distance, on the other side of the railway, is Opal 1, a block of student flats.

Radford Junction
The left hand line leads to Trowell Junction on the Erewash Valley Line. Once used by express services between London and Sheffield via Nottingham, it was earmarked for possible closure towards the end of the 20th century. It has revived since then, carrying the Northern Trains local service linking Nottingham, Sheffield and Leeds. The line straight ahead is the former Midland Railway Leen Valley line, opened in 1849 to tap the expanding Nottinghamshire coalfield. Passenger services were withdrawn in the 1960s under the Beeching Plan, but were revived in 1993 as the Robin Hood Line, which now operates half-hourly between Nottingham and Mansfield Woodhouse, hourly to Worksop.
