Until the start of the 20th century there were several nurseries within Harlequin, which could account for its name, one theory being visitors to nearby Belvoir Castle saw the banked colours of glass houses and nursery flowers and likened them to patterns of a harlequin costume.[1] Two brick works businesses existed in the area until around 1940, along with several clay pits providing material.[2] The area contained little residential housing until 1940 onwards, much of the nurseries being sold to provide land. The area was notably once home to a Nottingham lace entrepreneur, George Mather.[3] References1. ^{{cite web |title=WW1 Radcliffe Walks Leaflet 3 |url=http://radcliffeontrentww1.org.uk/pdf/WW1walk%203.pdf |website=radcliffeontrentww1.org.uk}} 2. ^{{cite web |last1=Gingerbenn |first1=Martyn Fretwell / |title=East Midlands Named Bricks : Nottingham Brickworks - part 4 - Bunny, Chilwell, Radcliffe, Saxondale, Stapleford,West Bridgford, Wilford & Wollaton |url=https://eastmidlandsnamedbricks.blogspot.com/2016/11/nottingham-brickworks-part-4-bunny.html |website=East Midlands Named Bricks |date=29 November 2016}} 3. ^{{cite web |title=Flower, Tom [of Radcliffe-on-Trent] |url=http://www.ournottinghamshire.org.uk/page/tom_flower |website=www.ournottinghamshire.org.uk}} External links
