View towards Rivendell
Not exactly the 'last homely house' of the Tolkien stories, and not my idea of a 'des.res.'. This is a substantial development which has not convenient public transport which means that residents will be tied to private transport for at least the foreseeable future.
The developer's description that “There’s a frequent bus service running into Nottingham every 30 minutes from Florence Road which is just a 10-minute walk from Rivendell.” is disingenuous to say the least. The Traffic Commissioners who are the official monitors of bus operation define a 'frequent' service as one that runs at least every 10 minutes, while the '10 minute walk' from Florence Road will just get you to the northern edge of the development, not yet commenced. From the further end of the development, away from the A612, the walking time would be best part of 30 minutes, well beyond what is generally considered an acceptable walking time to a bus service.

An ordinary cyclist
'Ordinary' was the general name at the end of the 19th century for what is now normally called a 'penny-farthing' bicycle. This is a modern version – readily available, but it will set you back well over £1000.
