A Few More Old Photos


Recommended Posts

The area occupied in the photo of Burtons Supermarket to the right of Paynes Ironmongery was previously the Station Bridge, a solid iron structure about 8ft high, this was duplicated on the opposite side of Parliament St between Clinton Street East & Clinton Street West and again at the other end of the Clinton Streets where they met Thurland St. This was the Ironmongery area of nottingham.. Paynes as in the Photo, opposite this was Carr& Co on Parliament Street & Thomas Danks on the corner of Thurland Street. One other ironmonger was on Glasshouse St called Broughtons. At this time, when trains left the station to enter the tunnel under Thurland St there were clouds of Smoke/steam coming over these iron walls. They were still there in March of 1960 when I last used the station.
