The Old Meeting House, previously the Old Parsonage is home to the Unitarian Community of the Mansfield Area.

The building is situated on Mill Walk, Stockwell Gate, right in the middle of Mansfield and is hemmed in on all sides by big shops and an elevated roadway, making it difficult to get a good shot of it.

It has survived due to being a listed or protected building. It was built in 1702 and enlarged greatly in 1870. It is the oldest Non-Conformist place of worship in Nottinghamshire.

Assis au coin de Mansfield et Sherbrroke regardant vers l'est, non loin des portes Roddrick de McGill. J'ai tente de rendre cette atmosphère de lumière douce qui perçait de la rue McGill College vers Sherbrooke ce samedi matin. Le dessin par lui même m'a demandé assez de concentration pour en dire juste assez car impossible de tout dessiner. Si je la repeins en plus gros format je vais foncé d'avantage l'avant plan je crois.

Cleveland Architect, Levi Scofield, designed this building combining Victorian, Gothic, Richardson Romanesque, and Queen Anne architectural styles. This was to inspire a spiritual rebirth in the hearts of the young convicts housed here.

Having wrapped up their work in the industrial park CSXT local L011 headed back west on the lead they call the Chocolate and are paused just east of the station beside Amtrak's Northeast Corridor mainline as MBTA/Keolis train 820 inbound from Wickford Jct. cruises by with an HSP46 shoving on the rear.

Now that the window train has cleared, they'll get permission to open up on Main 2 and run down thru the station to crossover then reverse back up Main 1 to the other side to get in the clear on the Framingham Secondary and head back home to Walpole. They are still using the same unit I shot them with a few weeks prior, GP40-2 6233 (EMD blt. Feb. 1979 as BO 4334 delivered in Chessie System paint).

44004 "Great Gable" had brought this train from Rufford Colliery, bound for Avenue Sidings. However, the loco was suffering from a lack of engine power so its load was propelled into the sidings at Mansfield Colliery Junction on 17 September 1979.

"Freight under wire" is something I have been interested in trying for a while and with a weekday free I figured I'd take a train ride to Mansfield and catch the CSX local while I was there.
