Colwick War Memorial
Erected in 2010 outside St John the Baptist Church as a visible memorial for what is now designated as Colwick village. A simple obelisk in Portland stone, it commemorates all who have given their lives in conflict without reference to particular events.

Church of St John the Baptist, Colwick
The old parish church was the one adjacent to Colwick Hall, now in a ruinous state Image After an interregnum without a proper church, the parish was finally able to build this simple brick edifice which was consecrated in June 1951. Surprisingly for a church of this young age, it does not appear today as originally built. Initially intended to have a pitched roof, to save funds it was initially completed with a flat roof. Only in the 1980s were funds raised to raise the roof as originally intended. The newer mortar of the gable end can be discerned in the picture.

No buses today
The steep gradient of Douglas Avenue https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6709001 means that almost any fall of snow renders it impassable. In years past, buses would have run to this point and reversed in Mays Avenue to return to the city centre.
