More about this scene
The post-war building expansion is well shown in this mid-50s view of Oaks Lane, Willington. Semi-detached houses like these would have been snapped up by house-buyers wanting to be in commuting distance from Derby, just six miles away on the A38.

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our website to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was, prompted by the photographs in our archive. Here are some from Willington
Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
We live in Sycamore Farm which you can just see on the right of this picture. The rest of Repton Road has certainly changed in the last 50+ years but Sycamore Farm is still there. I would be interested in any old memories/pictures that people have of Sycamore Farm. There must be a few in the last few hundred years since the original part of the house was built.
