A section of the 1915 O.S. map of the New Lenton area showing Tyne Street highlighted in pink. After the Willoughby Street area was redeveloped in the 1960s this street ceased to exist. Tyne Street was originally called Clifton Street and was renamed after Lenton became part of Nottingham in 1876.

George Roberts was looking along Tyne Street with his back to the junction with Park Road when he took this photograph in 1960. Click here to see the original photograph on the Picture the Past website.

For this shot of Tyne Street in 1960 George Robert was now standing at the junction with Maxwell Street and looking back towards Park Road. The properties shown in the previous photograph can be seen in the far distance on the righthand side of the street. Click here to see the original photograph on the Picture the Past website.

When George Roberts returned to Tyne Street in July 1961 the properties on this section of Tyne Street had already been demolished. This time he was standing at the junction with Head Street. On the right of the photograph are the backs of some of the properties on Willoughby Street. Click here to see the original photograph on the Picture the Past website.
