Grantleigh Close
Unusually for a modern development, this close is split in two, as far as road access is concerned. The continuity is maintained by this pedestrian and cycle way, which has been provided with profiled blocks which permit the passage of emergency vehicles.

Nottingham Canal remains
Until the 1980s there was a considerable stretch of the old Nottingham Canal extant in this area. Most was built over, but this section containing the remains of two locks and two intermediate pounds was retained as open space. The locks were a substantial flight with closely spaced locks separated by generally elliptical pounds to help maintain water levels. The entrance to a lock can be seen to the right of the light tree, and to the left of it is the overflow weir with its curved cill.

Lock weir
The curved stonework is the cill of the overflow past one of the locks on the old Nottingham Canal. The lock itself was just beyond it.

A walk round Martin's Pond (4)
There is a well surfaced path all the way round the Pond. On the eastern side it is fairly open with scrubby woodland to the east and mature willows along the edge of the water. In the distance the path runs into marshy willow beds and is much more enclosed.
See http://www.nottinghamcity.gov.uk/www/greenspaces/Docs/MartinsPondmap.pdf for a map of the site.
