Summary[edit]

Description
English: Musters Road, West Bridgford. This is one of the main wide tree-lined streets in the Victorian suburb of West Bridgford where many wealthy Nottingham industrialists lived. Strict planning rules imposed by the Musters family, when they sold their land for building, restricted density and imposed a minimum number of bedrooms. Smaller houses were permitted on side streets, and terraces were erected on roads such as Stratford Road for the servants, (see 1267574). It is interesting to note that there are no "Streets" in West Bridgford. Originally many roads were name "Street" but this was felt to be too urban by the Victorian "planners". Thus all street names were changed from "Street" to "Road". The one exception is "Village Street" in Edwalton, a village that has been totally absorbed into the town of West Bridgford.
