Remember endo's (Henderson's) scrapyard near Bulwell market? I remember 'tatting' for copper, lead, brass, etc. to sell for a few bob. We also used to take clothes/rags and got 1d a pound for cotton and 3d a pound for wool.

Talking of scrapyards, there was also Atlas car breakers at the end of Brooklyn Road, just over Dobby bridge towards Basford.
