Wollaton Hall Drive
Although the name suggests that this was the original drive to Wollaton Hall, and it maintains the alignment with Lime Tree Avenue in Wollaton Park, this is not the case. The original drive followed a more curving route to the north, and the current road was created when housing was developed in the area during the Inter-war period. The avenue trees are a mixture of ordinary and copper beeches. Clearly many were pollarded at some stage before being allowed to re-grow, resulting in long upward-reaching branches.
