Site of the Swannington Incline winding engine. The Swannington Incline was the work of Robert Stephenson and was cable worked by a stationary engine at the top - an 1833 horizontal single cylinder engine. This is now preserved at the National Railway Museum but there are alleged plans to rebuild its house and reinstall it here. The incline was latterly used in the reverse direction to supply coal to the Calcutta pit engine.

Residence in Nottingham

"My family had a fantastic stay at the house in Nottingham! The property was clean, cozy, and thoughtfully furnished—everything felt welcoming and well-maintained. The location was ideal, with easy access to entertainment, food, and the city center. The host was wonderful. It was the perfect base for exploring Nottingham, and I truly appreciated the quiet comfort of the space after busy days out. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!"
