Leaving The Bottoms on corner into Old Fall Street, next finds an older Sutton Road Methodist Chapel becoming a more prominent landmark after recognising a well photographed 1906 Huthwaite Tram Terminus. Plans for extending those Mansfield rail services into Blackwell was just one of many further proposals never to materialise, leaving this single track simply ending here until 1932.
Steepest part of Sutton Road is lined both sides just beyond the Terminus by the extended row of New Hucknall Colliery housing. Above those left one large undeveloped plot, until Barker & Hepworth proposed 1922 plans for their Billiard Hall. That was run long after Cooper & Hepworth held final 1941 directory listing, but barely recalled without enticing much general custom, nor any photo coverage. Its 133 Sutton Road addressing has ever since been claimed by Huthwaite Plumbing & Heating Supplies Ltd.
Roof line of one far older premises is visible above, occupying a similar sized plot of adjacent land corning onto a future defined Skegby Road. Its clearly mapped from Sanderson 1835, when most larger properties in this rural hamlet of Hucknall-under-Huthwaite were simply classified as farms. This Hill Top Farm is now identified long associated with family surname Stringfellow. Unfortunately only revealed in process of being demolished to widen a previously called Newkin Lane into Skegby Road, aside the Portland Arms stood fronting opposite top corner.
Past generations recalled a time when they loosely identified all this section of Sutton Road being informally known as Doctors Bank. Reference could have stemmed from an earlier practice actually shown facing New Kiln Lane, once run by Dr Wilbourne. Nonetheless, opening a separate top side surgery fronting Dr Gaston's Mill House residence added another medical practice shared with his son-in-law. Dr Clitheroe must have reinforced the term, after building his own private family residence on this exact plot opposite roadside that claimed address number 127.
Their consultation room would have been situated just above these colliery houses, where the corner plot into Mill Close displays a 2013 sold sign. Mill Close adopted name from circa 1976 construction replacing the former Mill House, but that itself had extended original historic reference taken from a Mill Land farmhouse, plus being built upon grounds that formerly sited the actual windmill.
Doctors Bank would become a gradually forgotten name after centralising all Huthwaite medical interests into a New Street Health Clinic. Its therefore a remarkable twist of fate realising that centre was eventually replaced in 2013, by again reclaiming site atop its past used reference, by next transforming Dr Clitheroe's vacated house into a future serving Brierley Park Medical Centre.
