 History behind the street/road names
replied on: 10/1/2005 6:00:59 PM
You've just started the thread....!

A quick advert first. There is, of course, a book entitled the Origin of Heanor & District Street Names. Currently out of print, but available in local libraries, and we're hoping for a new edition in 2006.

Mansfield Road (which used to be Heanor Lane) is so named because it was part of the Derby to Mansfield Turnpike Road, set up in 1764.
