Brilliant pictures of the Nutbrook Canal Tollhouse on Ladywood Road, entering Kirk Hallam. In the b/w photo you can see the old school (now converted to a house) and the white house which was demolished.

Can anyone imagine such an interesting old building being demolished to build new semis these days?
