Rear of Alton's Cigar Factory, Ilkeston Road , 2001. There is
a car park space for EGA 700 - I wonder which manager owned
this car in the 1950's?
This building is soon to be demolished, and new housing built
in its place.

The
Ainsley Estate
- I lived here from 1965-1994.
This
1940s council estate is still classified as Old Radford. Families
which I remember here in the 60s and 70s include Starr,
Ferris, Wilmot, Curtis, Matthews, Skerrit, Upton, Brown, Singh-Matto,
Munn, Crofts, Swinscoe, Kirwan, Selvey, Meakle, Greenacre, Gibbons,
and many others.
If
you are a former resident, I would like to hear your Ainsley
Tales,
