Presumably this is when it was still a cinema http://www.pictureth...014256&prevUrl=

I think it's currently an amusement arcade http://maps.google.c...2,2.29,,1,-0.99

The days when cinema-building went a bit OTT

More Huntingdon Street, this time later in its life.

If you want to wallow in Wolseleys, take a look at this http://www.aronline....rques-wolseley/ If you're interested in old cars, look at the site starting at its Homepage http://www.aronline.co.uk/blogs/

Back to the Square......... I don't remember it when it had buses outside The Bell, like this; some time in the 50s

Familiar performance to anyone on a Mac I've always avoided any of Mr Gates' products, and benefitted as a result

That, and the Classic on Market Street which I believe also provided "adult entertainment"

You forget how common a sight Shippos lorries were around Nottingham. And if you keep going through that Flickr collection, there are some fascinating old family/portrait pictures of people from Ilkeston & Nottingham

Paulus, if you're referring to the Mount Street photo......yes that building is still there. It's on Regent Street, like this http://binged.it/Ii9MkW

This thread made quite a few mentions of the Empire Cafe, but so far there hadn't been any photos of it. Now I've found this - where it appears to be having a repaint

A very early version of Huntingdon Street...... And although it's not exactly a bus station, this is a great photo from the days when buses started from the Market Square

That top photo - which sums it all up perfectly - appeared in this thread a while ago http://nottstalgia.c...topic=8348&st=0 And moving across town a bit, here's the old version of Mount Street from the 50s/60s

I used to go past there quite frequently in the early 90s and it was in that condition back then

I've never seen the feature you're referring to (maybe I ought to have a look) but I think Ashley has possibly answered the question, re: trams The map is from the 1920s but it's slightly odd because I don't think the line stopped dead where it it shown. I think it continued all the way along to the other end of Stockhill Lane, and then to Nottingham. Sometimes on these old maps, two different maps from different time-periods have been joined together and it produces odd features like this disappearing tramway.

The bridges and tunnels on Meadow Lane were covered in this thread some time ago http://nottstalgia.c...?showtopic=9116

Give me a clue (or even an answer) who that was....

Welcome Stephen, although I think you've been around here for a while already. And have I seen your name crop up on a couple of bus-related sites?

I accidentally found 'uncyclopedia' a while ago and I agree it can keep you amused for hours With a similar attitude, you might like to look at this one http://www.thedailymash.co.uk/

I haven't been down there for a long time, but if I've got my bearings right the old building is where these http://maps.google.c...2,26.09,,0,1.57 are now.

Continuing on the theme of shops, these are on Picture the Past and show the Orford Avenue/Sandham Walk shops exactly how I remember them when I was a kid

I'm not the most religious person on the planet, so I'm a bit out of my depth here, but.......... I don't really remember the name of Stephen Verney - maybe he was a bit early for me; but I think (may be wrong) that his successor was a man called Whittaker. I definitely remember that by the late 1960s it was a guy called Christopher Aldridge.

Woodbridge Avenue, just along Brinkhill Crescent (and not to be confused with Woodsford Grove which was near you) There are a number of threads running at the moment about Clifton (partly because of you ) and I noticed in the Clifton Hall one, you said you were there from 60-65, which makes you a bit older than me because I was at Fairham from 66-73; although I didn't leave Clifton until the late 70s. The only people I can remember knowing on Bulcote Rd were a couple of brothers called Hewitt. Check the thread called "Clifton" where I posted a couple of photos of Varney Road, after you'd

Just to illustrate Ashley's point...... apparently this is Wilford Road MR yard in the 1920s
