Although nowadays submerged in Nottingham's western suburbs, Wollaton village still has a rural feel to it, helped by its proximity to Wollaton Park and its status as a conservation area.

A school is shown here on the 1900 map, and this looks like the original building, adapted with a new entrance and modern extension behind.

Showing the nesting holes built into the wall and the timber framing of the roof. The nesting holes are L-shaped to provide a partially enclosed nesting space. Listed Grade II.
