| - The Fosdyke curves through the picture, its surface smooth white ice. The two banks are brown with dead grass, and the fields either side crop-less and white with hoar. Farther along the bank, in the middle distance, a small group of redbrick buildings are grouped together. Lamp posts are ranged on the right bank, facing away from the canal. They are for lighting the adjacent, but invisible, A57 road. (en)

| - A narrow drain crossed by a small bridge. The bridge is of rusted, and untreated steel, and consists of a straight steel beam supporting the road deck, with, behind it, a steel arch. The arch is fixed in a buttress of dressed and coursed stonework, visible only on the far bank. There is another on our side of the drain, but it is obscured by vegetation. Rusty handrails protect pedestrians from falling. The water is flat, reflecting , the blue sky above. (en)

The main building is the former Drinsey Nook Inn which is actually situated in Nottinghamshire; this was previously known as the 'Buffalo Inn' on old Ordnance Survey maps. Drinsey Nook is notable for Tom Otter, a man who murdered his new wife in 1805. Otter, reputedly from Treswell, was already a married when he married his wife, Mary, whom he murdered the same day near the bridge that now bears his name. He was hanged in 1806, and was held in a Gibbet post adjacent to Gibbet Wood. Tom Otter lane is the B1190 running south from the village, and Tom Otters Bridge is named after the site of the murder.
