In the history of Carrington, it says there were densely built terrace housing along Hucknall Rd, built for the working class, and demolished in the 60's. I'm guessing lace workers lived there.

When I lived near there (1970's) there was waste ground just above Hair By Him and Sheila Noke's DIY shop - now Granger & Oaks (Westminster Bank on the corner Hucknall Road/Mansfield Road - now, apparently an Indian Restaurant). The houses that were there, I was told by an old local in the Grosvenor were, indeed, as katyjay says lace workers and knitters houses.
