Mansfield Road Tunnel is a 1,189 yard tunnel with its North Portal in a railway cutting (now filled in) which housed Carrington railway station (closed in 1928) and continued South towards central Nottingham. Its South Portal is at the North end of the extensive cutting which currently accommodates the Victoria Shopping Centre. The tunnel still exists but is not accessible
