Dovecote, Wollaton, Nottingham
The dovecote, c.1560, is seen here from the closed end of Dovecote Drive (a quiet cul-de-sac). Doves were used to create supplies of food for consumption during winter. The tiles are apparently original and the initials FW can be seen on either side of the building, an indication that it belonged to Sir Francis Willoughby. It seems that its existence was first recorded in 1585 when a new Wollaton Hall was being built. As a museum it is open to the public at certain times during the warmer months and in addition it is the base of the Wollaton Historical and Conservation Society.

William Wright Memorial Institute, Wollaton
This pleasant old building is now a private nursery, one of three within 200 m of each other in this resolutely middle class area of Nottingham. The plaque above the door reads: "William Wright Memorial Institute, 1900". Perhaps William Wright was a scion of one of the local "big" families, the Wrights of (nearby) Stapleford Hall [http://www.stapleford-notts.co.uk/staplefordhall.htm]?
