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

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 Most seem to have been replaced by more traditional plates on a metal frame.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

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.

Apple Tree Lane
The name is a good indicator this is a footpath of some antiquity. Historical maps confirm that it existed before any housing was developed, and parts of it still exists further into the development Image

Gedling Church
Recreating this 'First' for the square https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/35702 . The striking presence of the distant church is recognised in the title although it is only a small part of the picture. Manor Farmhouse, Listed Grade II, is more visible as the result of removal of trees.
