Junction of Orston and Fairham Drives in Wollaton, Nottingham
This photo was taken from the roundabout at the junction of Orston and Fairham Drives in Wollaton, Nottingham. The two semi-detached bungalows are absolutely typical of the housing in the small, pleasant area either side of Middleton Boulevard (also known as the ring road). The view looks towards the back of the Jubilee campus of Nottingham University (built on the site of the old Raleigh Factory), but the only part visible in this image (just above the tree-line in the middle of the photo) is the very top of the new Aspire sculpture [(http://aspire.nottingham.ac.uk/)]; the photo was taken about 10 days after the sculpture was erected.

Jubilee Campus - visitors are welcome
The University takes an enlightened view of allowing the public to roam the campus, although it would be difficult to enclose it due to the number of rights of way which traverse it.
The building is the National College for School Leadership.
