Rutland Road, Lady Bay
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.

Pierrepont Road, Lady Bay
Suburban semis line the east side of Pierrepont Road in the Lady Bay area of West Bridgford. The origin of the Lady Bay name is obscure, one suggestion being that it refers to a bay mare that was once kept in fields here. The sign marking the way to the Poppy and Pint pub is also unusual - as is the pub itself (seeImage).

Rutland Road blocks the Grantham Canal
The scene of Image
The short road which connects Radcliffe Road to Rutland Road, does not appear to have a name of its own so I expect is classed as part of the latter.

The Grantham Canal from Rutland Road
Rutland Road is now a flat crossing, but there was once a lifting bridge across the long-abandoned canal - see Image], which brings back memories of my early childhood. The photograph was taken against the light on a spring evening.

West Bridgford: the Grantham Canal behind Rutland Road
The canal opened in 1797 and was abandoned in 1936. This stretch forms a pleasant walk and wildlife corridor beside Radcliffe Road (over the hedge on the left). The houses on the right are on Rutland Road.
