Most of this small village lies behind the photographer on School Lane and Church Lane (each a continuation of the other). This view - from School Lane - however, indicates how the village is bisected by the former A46 road (now known as either the Foss Way or the Fosse Way). The new dual carriageway version of the A46 runs parallel with the Foss/Fosse Way 2-3 mins along the road seen ahead, i.e. Moor Lane (although no access is possible to the new road from Moor Lane). Nottingham is reached by taking a right-hand turning at this junction and Newark via a left-hand turn. The building on the corner, that is currently being redeveloped into residential units, was formerly The Pauncesfot Arms public house. More recently it saw service as a none-to-successful Indian restaurant.
