Lady Bay, although part of West Bridgford, is a distinct area between the A52 and the River Trent. Before it was built upon by the Victorians in the 19th century it was basically two very large fields and a wet marshy place by the river. Today it has its own personality, almost like a village. The main routes into the area are marked by these crane "gates" and there is a 20 mph speed limit throughout.
