Queen's Avenue
Part of the large post-war development off Arnold Lane which was essentially a pit village for the neighbouring Gedling Colliery, although it abutted existing residential areas. The roads off this road - Philip Avenue, Elizabeth Grove, Margaret Crescent and Mountbatten Grove, and the neighbouring Kings Avenue indicate that it was built not long after the Royal Wedding in 1948.

View towards Gedling Country Park
The skyline is almost entirely man made, being the landscaped spoil tips of Gedling Colliery which would have been a prominent feature from this viewpoint. The housing was developed for colliery employees.

Queen's Avenue
Part of the large post-war development off Arnold Lane which was essentially a pit village for the neighbouring Gedling Colliery, although it abutted existing residential areas. The very broken terrain with relatively steep sided valleys and intervening ridges can be seen in this view. Although not obvious in this picture, the road name plate does not include an apostrophe, although the original road name does Image

Gedling: Mountbatten Grove
Gedling was a mining village which expanded a lot after the Second World War. These houses date from the 1950s. Steep streets are characteristic of the hilly eastern side of Nottingham.

Radford Crescent
There appear to be just a couple of houses actually with an address on this street - and it's unusually straight for a crescent!

Queen's Avenue
One of the unusual road signs which appear to be very local to this estate. Most seem to have been replaced by more traditional plates on a metal frame. The road is on quite a steep gradient at this point, and the sign follows the gradient rather than being placed level. The more modern signs have dispensed with the apostrophe
