Between Holme Road, Lady Bay and the River Trent this large area of statutory washlands stretches from Lady Bay Bridge in the west to Adbolton Lane in the East. Also known as The Hook, this meadowland provides a habitat for wildlife and a recreational area for local residents. It floods dramatically every 5 to 10 years, so will never be developed. The large building in the distance is a new luxury apartment development on the opposite bank of the River Trent.
