the sprawling railway industry.
Factoids
|
|
The building
above almost looks like it has been cut in half with a knife!
this building is next to the Portland Hotel and has the same
ornate architecture. The picture above right is a typical
street scene in the area and below are similar scenes |
|
Probably
Wilmorton's best known neighbour was Wilmorton Tertiary
College, although now demolished and a housing development is
sprouting up (2006),
this college was built on the old Derby tip back in the 1960's |
|
Above left is an
old advertisement painted on the side of the Council owned
building, this would have been next to the old canal and above
right is the path of the canal, the canal was built around
1796. Below are the rows of houses on both sides of the
Alvaston Park |
