Black Woods Scout Hut
It seems to have changed a lot since I was a cub here. My memories are of a tenko style wooden hut with a veranda.

Cut through living rock
The soft Bunter Sandstone makes it comparatively easy to cut through where it is needed to ease the gradient of the road. There are more than one example of this in the area.

Remarkable road layout
Not obvious at first glance, but in fact these are two separately named roads on either side of the median strip - this side is Henley Rise, the further is Glendon Drive. The median strip appears to act as an elongated roundabout, judging by the bollard and the road markings, but there is no No Entry sign on Henley Rise. One wonders what the detailed traffic regulation orders are! At the end, the two roads go their separate ways as normal roads before joining again, at which point only Glendon Drive continues.

Scout Hut gates, Hucknall Road
The white band across the gable reads:
"SCOUTS OF THIS PLACE LET THIS OF YOU BE SAID,
THAT YOU WHO LIVE ARE WORTHY OF YOUR DEAD.
THEY GAVE THEIR LIVES THAT YOU WHO LIVE MAY REAP
A RICHER HARVEST ERE YOU FALL ASLEEP"
The metal gates carry the wording
