16, Kneeton Vale, Sherwood
My parents' house for a few years; this picture was taken shortly before the purchase. The ridiculous Tudor-style decoration was installed by the previous owner, inadvertently resembling maritime signal flags somewhat. All of this was taken down shortly after the purchase, needless to say!

Nottingham - Bagthorpe
A view of the junction of Gunthorpe Drive with Perry Rd, NG5. On the left is part of HMP Nottingham that began life as Bagthorpe Gaol in 1890. It was rebuilt in 1912 and functioned as a closed training establishment for men until 1997. Its latest metamorphosis was in 2008 when it was reconstructed again and redoubled in size.

Valley Road Park, Nottingham, NG5
This recreation ground is situated between Day Brook, a river that acts as a natural boundary between City Hospital (off screen on the left) and the A6514 (to the left of the railings). The series of lamp posts bordering these Nottingham Petanque Club’s pistes once provided external lighting on the P.Z.Cussons (U.K. Ltd) soap factory site in Basford. Gerard Bros Ltd opened a soap manufacturing factory in 1893 and it was taken over by Cussons Ltd in 1955. When Cussons closed the factory in 2009, having decided to shift its production elsewhere, one of the founding members of the petanque club asked if the club might have the lamp posts as an alternative to them ending up as scrap metal. The newly installed club storage premises can be seen here.
