This landscaped area and children's playground, serving the houses on Roman Drive, Gothic Close and Script Drive, is built on land once occupied by the Great Northern Nottingham to Derby Friargate railway, which crossed Arnold Road behind the camera. The street names recall the Barlock Typewriter Company, whose factory was on - and gave its name to - nearby Barlock Road.
