More about this scene

The second section of this chapter starts to the west of the city in Stapleford, close to the Derbyshire border, which follows the River Erewash southwards to the River Trent. Stapleford, now virtually a satellite of Nottingham, grew up from a village of lace factories and framework knitters' houses. Its character is now that of a Victorian industrial town, as this view shows; we are at the main crossroads in the town centre, with Church Street off to the right. The corner shops are now a Nottingham Building Society branch.
