Bede-Ling, West Bridgford
Located off Wilford Lane just east of Wilford, this bizarrely named cul-de-sac serves only a small number of houses.

Nottingham - NG2 (Wilford Area)
Bede Ling, off Wilford Lane (the B679). Ling appears to be an alternative name for heather, a plant that thrives in well drained, sandy situations. As to the name Bede, mention is made in the Thoroton Society Transactions (Vol. XVIII) of “a chantry house in Wollaton near the Rectory house, the lower storey whereof was occupied by Bede-folk ...." Thus, since the Venerable Bede is known to have exerted a great an influence along the Trent Valley and also that the Benedictines were present at Lenton Priory in 1872, it seems possible that this area of sandy moorland was once owned by these “Bede folk”. More recently, a rifle range existed in a field at the closed end of this cul-de-sac.

Nottingham - NG2 - Wilford Area
The Wilford Road (B679) entrance/exit to the former Rushcliffe Council municipal waste tip. Once the tip was full the area was levelled off and covered, in part by ash from the Ratcliffe-on-Soar coal-fired power station, and it is currently open land for recreational use, albeit semi-permanently under threat of being built upon.
