Yet more flats
All of these blocks of flats have been built relatively recently. Behind them is a large central courtyard where a limited number of cars can be parked, but I do not think there is enough space for one car for every flat, though I may be mistaken.

The store is being built on the land formerly occupied by the Trent Barton Bus garage. Once planning permission was given the ground has been quickly prepared and the steel frame work has been put up rapidly.

Waste ground
This area is where the former bus depot for Trent Barton Buses was, until its demolition. I am surprised it is still derelict land as everywhere else around here has had blocks of flats built.
