That’s a brilliant sketch, Alan, just as I remember it from the days when I used to be in the crowd cheering on the Stags from under the telegraph at the Quarry Lane end. The house on the corner was the St Marks clergy house. One of the curates in the early fifties was Peter Boulton, who went on to greater things as Vicar of Clipstone.

Apart from Bradder Street and the church on the tippin , just about everything was built with stone on the lane. These included all the walls and dwellings, plus the houses in the Byron Yard. All had Quarry Lane postal addresses.
