Ups and downs of Arnold Lane
A real roller-coaster road. The spire of Gedling church is an ever-present landmark in this area.

Arnold Lane, Gedling
Looking towards Arnold from the end of Besecar Avenue, Arnold Lane looks almost like a straight rollercoaster, epitomising the hilly nature of this part of Gedling.

Besecar Avenue, Gedling
Thankfully, this road is only used by Nottingham City Transport bus route 44 (Gedling to city via Netherfield) in one direction as it does a small one way loop around this part of Gedling. The horizon is formed by the slag heaps of Gedling colliery (closed 1991).

Path to the supermarket, Chase Farm
An inanity of the car-based, enclosed area thought behind many modern housing developments. The local supermarket is around 150 metres behind the photographer. Because the estate is surrounded by a fence, the official pedestrian route involves walking up the to point on the main road on the left where some blue flags are visible, before coming all the way back down. From the nearest house this is just over 1 kilometre. The path leads to a gate in the fence which is clearly meant to be a locked access to the area around the catchment pond on the left. (It wasn't locked when I was there, but there was someone working on the 'wrong' side of the fence.) If the fence is intended to protect residents from the perils of the pond, the absurdity of this is that the pond is not fenced off from the road.

Babbington Crescent
One of several roads in the area named after collieries in Nottinghamshire. The development was essentially a pit village for the neighbouring Gedling Colliery, although it abutted existing residential areas. The colliery was in Image on the site now occupied by Phoenix Park
