I have had a look on the picturethepast web site. There are some fresh pictures of Marlpool worth a look at. They are of the Ilkeston Road/Breach Road area and probably pre 1950. There is a view of the Ilkeston Road and Breach Road junction with no sign of Buxton Avenue. What traffic there is on the roads appears to be of 30s vintage.
