Truro Crescent
Image: © John Sutton Taken: 24 Sep 2009
Taken from the turning circle at the top of the cul-de-sac, looking towards Newquay Avenue. Laid out in the late 1930s and designed for the small cars of the period, these streets are very narrow by modern standards. Many of the houses on Newquay Avenue and Lynmouth Crescent were built without garages as few of the original occupiers would have owned cars, but all of the houses on Truro Crescent had drives and garages. Part of the Bulwell stone garden wall - so typical of Nottingham - in the foreground has been demolished to widen the entrance.
