Aerial photo, showing Central Station and its passenger footbridge adjacent to Watnall Road.Former factory buildings in centre of picture still exist (see here).
Storth Avenue is clearly visible just beyond the factory, running left-to-right. Beyond Storth Avenue are the terraced houses of Byron Street and Orchard Street, which were replaced by modern housing in the 1960s (see Buildings Timeline).
Factory shown is Reynolds which manufactured ‘Renola’ brand underwear. (See Hucknall Textile Factories)
