This is the old layout, with the back straight having a distinct bend in it to the right, which has gone now |

The current City playground doesn't extend this far, was the piece visible in this picture part of a bigger playground? |

looking at this again, I think "shunter " is correct and this is where Rectory Road/Close is now. |

Not much has changed since 1928. The road running from left to right in the bottom of the picture is Rockingham Road. The school at the bottom of the picture is now for foreign students. The park (bottom right) is the City Playground. The road at the bottom of the picture leading of Rockingham Rd, up towards the railway station is St Michaels Rd. The houses were only about a year or two old when this picture was taken.They were built as "homes fit for heros" after WW1. The large building centre right of this picture, near the railway line was a school which was bombed in WW2 |
