The condition of the wall is self explanatory; it was probably attacked by a heavy vehicle making its way to the Council depot at the top of the road.

West from Woodyard Lane railway bridge
The line from Radford Junction 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, beyond the trees, whose site has long been cleared. Fifty or more years ago this was an exciting place for trainspotters as expresses passed at some speed and were usually pulled by Jubilee Class engines with big brass nameplates, such as Nottingham's "Travancore" or "Hong Kong".
