Victorian Post Box
This quite large Victorian Post Box is at the junction of Bolsover Rd and Firth Park Road.
It looks like the wall has been rebuilt quite recently - or maybe it has just been cleaned

Hamilton Road
Hamilton Road is the middle one of three roads which run straight up the hill to the west of Firth Park Road. If the hill has a name, I don't know it.
The houses on here consist almost entirely of two single terraces, one on each side of the road.
This is looking down the hill from Granby Road which connects the top of the three roads.

Bolsover Road
Looking from Granby Road on the hill to the east. The red car passing across the frame is on Barnsley Road (the A6135), behind that lies the Northern General Hospital.
I can vaguely remember when the Northern General was formed by the amalgamation of the Northern Infirmary and City General in the mid-sixties.

Khawaja and Sons - Halal Supermarket
Build as a Co-op shop in about 1910 (I expect that would have been the Brightside and Carbrook Co-op). It was, through the 1960s and part of the 1970s a furniture shop by the name of Patnic (or Patnik). Then a local DIY shop called Pope's moved in and they must have still be in residence in 1995 as it was grade II listed in that year and is described as a DIY shop.

The junction of Vickers and Cammell Roads
Both names referencing steel-based engineering.
The property labelled with the no 95 was once the essential neighbourhood corner shop. In this case "Mrs Holmes's". Many an errand was run to here!
