View from Bestwood Estate
From the old Padstow School site. The nearest houses with the hipped roofs are on Gainsford Crescent and date from the late 1930s. Next beyond them is the recent estate which replaced the former High Pavement College. Beyond can be seen one of the Baford gasometers, to its left the former Shipstones brewery, beyond it the Engineering Department tower at the university of Nottingham.

Communications tower
The tower appears to be the last remaining part of the former Padstow School, presumably its water supply, and has survived due to its use as a communications mast.

Now accessible as open space. Virtually all sign of the former buildings has disappeared - I needed to refer to an old street map to find out what had been here!
