Basford: Greenwich Avenue Playing Fields

When I was at school this was our playing field. The houses on the left are on Greenwich Avenue. The trees in the distance on the right mark the former course of the Nottingham Victoria to Derby Friargate railway line, which crossed this part of Basford on a high embankment since levelled.
