"... the striking feature of Braunstone Town is the wide Kingsway, a road which features a large village green at its heart running for the entirety of the street." https://www.secret-bases.co.uk/wiki/Braunstone_Park_%26_Rowley_Fields. I'm not able to find out why this wide corridor of grass and trees, extending almost a mile from the edge of the Soar floodplain, has not been built on.
