Nottingham - NG3 (Sneinton)
This gate post at the edge of King Edward Park, off Dakeyne Street, is all that remains of The General Lunatic Asylum for the Town & County of Nottingham. In 1873, once all its private patients had been transferred to The Coppice Hospital, Mapperley it became known as The County Lunatic Asylum. This was in turn replaced by Saxondale Hospital that served residents of Notts from 1902-88. During the late 50s and the 60s at least part of the Sneinton buildings were used by the Dakeyn Street Lads' Club (later to become The Oliver Hind Boys Brigade).

Windmill Lane at Sneinton Primary School.
Colourful figurines are bollards to deter motorists parking on the footway when collecting children. Most of them have a name written in felt pen on their foreheads. The two nearest are Sarah and Jack!

Carlton Road, Christmas Day
Probably the only day of the year when you will see it as empty as this in the middle of the day – just one solitary car in sight.

The Queen Adelaide
On Windmill Lane, Sneinton.
Almost certainly this was built as a Hardy Hansons (Kimberley's) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kimberley_Brewery pub.
