EPW021825 ENGLAND (1928). Collin Green and surroundings, Sherwood, 1928

This is one of several "Nottingham" views which show the Nottingham Suburban Railway (NSR. At this time (June 1928) it was still a two track main line. The line can be seen at the bottom of the picture about an inch up passing through Woodthorpe Park. The white vertical line, centre bottom, is the drive which goes to the Woodthorpe Grange (out of shot at bottom of picture) and where it passes between the two rows of trees, the railway passes underneath using Ashwell's Tunnel. To the left of Ashwell's tunnel the line opens out to enter Sherwood Station , whose goods yard can be seen bottom left. To the right of Woodthorpe Park the NSR passed under Scout Lane (now Woodthorpe Drive) and passed between houses on its way north to Daybrook Junction.
