Iremonger Road wouldn't exist for another 35 years or so and it wouldn't be at the bottom of that image.

That's the way we used to get to the ground before it became a dead end and we'd often have to wait at the railway crossing. It was always heart-warming to see the odd old supporter in the Sneinton area with Notts scarves on making their way there on foot down Lord Nelson Street or wherever, something they'd probably done for many decades going back to Lawton days or earlier.Quote:
