Mapperley, Nottingham at twilight

View looking across to Porchester Gardens. The area was deeply mined for clay for brick-making, and then became a huge area of allotments, before being built on. On the horizon is the old Mapperley Hospital, a psychiatric hospital, which is now an NHS administration centre.
