These early morning dog-walkers have left the closed end of the Church Drive cul-de-sac behind and appear to be making their way across this public open space - known as Cloudside - towards Cloudside Drive. This grassy area sits atop a sandstone outcrop with views across Erewash Valley Golf Course, Stanton by Dale and the former Stanton Ironworks. The name "Stony Clud" is said to come from "clud", the Saxon word for hill.
