Calverton Post Office postbox (ref. NG14 350)
E II R pillar box, with the earlier 'Post Office' lettering, indicating that it is probably not a replacement for a built-in postbox, as is the case at many post offices. In the background is the local police station.

Pete's Fish Bar
The real reason for taking this shot was to include the pre-Worboys style of sign for the Public Conveniences (still in existence, but currently closed) http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2559218.

The green at Wood Grove
Part of the development of Calverton as a mining village in the 1950s. Originally this bit of open space looked out across agricultural land, behind the photographer.

St Wilfrid's Square
The main shopping precinct in the village, developed when the village expanded as a colliery village. There is still a reasonable variety of shops, including a butcher, a baker and a small Sainsbury's branch, together with the usual clutch of takeaways.

Public Inconveniences
Like so many, these toilets are currently out of use.
Update: In 2012: the Parish council took-over responsibility for this building and the conveniences are now once again in use.

Broadfields
The name applies to the whole of this development to the north of Park Road East, with quite a network of roads sharing the same name. Apparently the name was intended to be Broomfields, as this shrub was prolific in the area before development; the actual name was the result of a typing error.
