This turning circle, at the end of Newcombe Drive and sort of built into its junction with Darlton Drive (foreground), was largely unused for several years, the main bus service through Plains Estate continuing along Ramsey Drive and then via Coppice Road to Arnold (rather than serving Newcombe Drive). However, nine days after this photograph was taken, Nottingham City Transport introduced route 57, which serves Newcombe Drive half hourly during the day, and terminates here. Hopefully the car on the extreme left is no longer parked there.
