The A60 (the Nottingham-Loughborough Road). This is the view that motorists see as they approach the village, i.e. Nottingham is 15 or so miles behind the photographer and Rempstone and Loughborough lie ahead. The central building forms the former village school and almshouses that were designed and built for Sir Thomas Parkyn in 1700, for the people of the combined parish of Bunny and Bradmore. Bunny (originally known as Bune - and relating to reed beds - and Bradmore (originally Broad Meare, i.e. where reeds were once grown) seem always to have been linked.
