Bus turning circle, Rise Park
Rise Park's small district centre is provided with a large bus turning circle that contains four bus stops (the fourth being hidden from view by the trees on the right). At the time of posting only two bus routes normally terminate here (the 16 and 89, to Nottingham city centre via Hucknall Road and Edwards Lane respectively), the other two stops being used by routes 79 and 79A (to Arnold in one direction and to the city centre via Bulwell in the other). The convenience store at the far end of the turning circle (centre) was formerly a somewhat infamous pub called the Charles II, presumably named in deference to the gift of land in this area by that monarch to his mistress, Nell Gwynne.

Spar Park
Car park at Rise Park awaiting the opening of a new Spar supermarket. The building was formerly the Charles II public house, and the light patches of brickwork on the first floor indicate where the pub signs used to be.

Houses on Brownlow Drive, Rise Park
These rather plain looking detached houses are fairly typical of Rise Park, a suburban development which was somewhat isolated from the rest of Nottingham until Top Valley estate was developed to the south, filling the gap between Rise Park and Bestwood Park.

Bench mark at Brownlow Drive
Best seen in the high resolution version, the bench mark is on the brickwork of what appears to be a disused electricity substation.
