Siddals Road
Click an image for a large framed picture, but please wait for all the pictures to load first

Siddals Road was once home to the colour and dye works, remember the yellow and orange stained buildings and pavements?

 
Below left is a picture of Siddals Road in 1991 looking down towards the cockpit island, with a similar view in 2005 below right, on this side of the road we now have a Subaru Garage, then Brittania Tyres and just out of shot is the RAC windscreens building

 


 
The two pictures above are taken from Siddals Road looking over to the Main Centre which is on the left and the Playhouse is on the right of the picture, below left is from Copeland Street looking over to the Cockpit Island, and bottom right is from the Eagle centre steps looking over to Siddals Road, you'll notice there is no Speeds car showroom in any of the pictures.
 

The picture above left shows the Copeland Street junction and above on the right is looking towards the Playhouse from Copeland Street, below are two pictures of the site now Speeds Volvo Showrooms have been built


 

Station Approach in 1991 one frosty morning, the dye works were on the right in the picture on the right, remember the stained buildings and pavements?

 

These three pictures taken in 1997 show the alteration of the junction of Siddals Road, Station Approach and the new link road into Pride Park, named Pride Park Way

 

The picture above left taken in 1997 shows the work on Station Approach to accommodate Pride Park Way and above right is a similar view once the work has been completed and on the right is an overhead view of  the new link road, Pride Park Way

 
Looking down Siddals Road towards the new cockpit car park and below left is Derby Bearings on Siddals Road and next door on the right is Wilemans Motors the BSA, Triumph, Norton and Velocette motorcycle dealer
 
 

This picture shows the nursing home that was built just before the link road into Pride Park was constructed
