There's another of those information boards I photographed yesterday at Hallam Fields and more at other parts of the town.
Unlike the one on Stanton Road that refers to a Square that no longer exists, this one unsurprisingly is titled "Hallam Fields" but both of them include a schematic map showing the route of the old tram system from one end of the town to the other. At Hallam Fields the board is attached to the front wall of The Stute which is another example of a name that has survived the passage of time being derived from the Stanton Working Men's Institute. Despite the demise of the Stanton works, The Stute is still well used and is the home of The Elks Rugby and Cricket Clubs.
