The building I think you are referring to is this. The Canaan Methodist Chapel on Newbridge Street. According to PTP built in 1883 and burnt down in 1949.

The Dr Who box at Yates's.

I don't think I remember it, but various earlier posts describe it as being immediately after Turney's factory. So that must make it the hut on the right of this photo.

Yes, I think it is the station. The angle of the camera makes the tower look as though it's connected to the building on the right, but that building is a long way in front of the tower.

I remember it well, and thanks to the RCTS....... http://www.rcts.org.uk/features/mysteryphotos/index.htm?location=Weekday+Cross&srch=&page=

I've been taking photos of this (former) feature as it disappeared in recent weeks. I'll post a few when I get round to it. Watch this space. See how much interest can be generated from four brick railway arches.

This website is a bit rambling, but if you click on the headings down the left side and on the links on various pages, there are quite a few photos and items I've not come across before. http://www.lewys.co.uk/Schooldays.html

In the last few days it has become impossible to avoid the Iceland adverts with Peter Andre. If that doesn't bankrupt them. nothing will.

I must've been on most of the West Brigford buses when they were on the Clifton service. Yes, it was the ITN music. It's called "Non-stop"

I wondered why the road is called Convent Street; you don't use a name like that unless there is some kind of connection. Across the road from Convent Street is the site of the old Central Market; and that site had previously been the St John's House of Correction, which has been mentioned in earlier threads here. What I didn't know is that before the House of Correction was built (around 1800), the site was occupied by the Convent of the Hospitallers of St John of Jerusalem. Which explains two connections.

Almost as surprising.........the building has survived.

Back to the real thing - it seems to match with "Landing Stage"..... for Colwick Hall?

I can't believe you don't recognise the link. The verse after the middle section. http://youtu.be/P-Q9D4dcYng?list=RDP-Q9D4dcYng

I read the news today. There's 4,000 of them in Blackburn, Lancashire.

In the place where your toolbar isn't...... do you see a small black arrow (pointing inwards) on the top right corner of the blue Reply box? Click on that arrow.

Not quite. Extending poohbears map a bit further east, you can now see Clumber street on the extreme right, which puts the rest in perspective. Black Boy Yard is - not surprisingly - connected to the Black Boy Hotel, although that's the earlier version before it was redesigned by Watson Fothergill. For the future location of King / Queen Street, I've put a red arrow on the lower half of the road marked as Greyhound Street. That still exists today, so K/Q Street are immediately to the west of that.

Carrying on from the photos of the bridge in post #15, this is what it all looks like a bit further along. This corner, with the Crown Inn, has now changed. It now looks like this. As a reference, the brown-brick factory on the right has survived. Slightly different angle. Up the slope to the bridge over the railway station.

Some of the oldest pictures on Pic the Past are Long Row; such as this in the 1880s, before King / Queen Street had been knocked through.

Amazing how many people here can remember Lyons on Long Row. It's been mentioned in several threads, but it's difficult to find a photo which shows the place clearly. You can see the name just beyond the rear of the bus.

So any guesses which way the photographer is facing? Is that Glasshouse Street in the background, or York Street/Mansfield-Melbourne Road?

I'd heard of the luggage subway, but I'm not sure if that is what is on the photo. As I said previously, I reckon the object in the photo is too close to ground level to be going under anything in Victoria. As for the building which Chulla mentions; according to the caption this is the north side of Bulwell viaduct, looking south. Looking at Old Maps for the time when the viaduct was built, there is no building in that space. It should be approximately where the white rectangle is.

Interesting, because I've never heard of such a thing before. I've zoomed in on the photo to the street scene in the background, and it's not easy to work out which direction the photographer is facing. I'd actually question if that is Nottingham Victoria at all. The track level is not much lower than the street level beyond the fence. All the track at Victoria is MUCH lower than that. It was in a much deeper hole. There is a detailed, original, plan of the station here http://www.railwayarchive.org.uk/map/planBookThumb.php?planNo=33 and no such feature is shown. I'll say I don't think it i

Never seen this one before, till I found it on PTP.

It's surprising how many of the old buildings around Mount Street have survived.
