A view from Ransom Road, near the top of the Mapperley ridge, with the chimney and cooling towers of Ratcliffe-on-Soar power station in the distance. The spot height nearby is 112m/368ft, so there are long views over the Trent Valley to the south-west and to the Vale of Belvoir to the south-east. For comparison, see Alan Murray-Rust's Image], taken with a more powerful zoom lens.
