From the north end of Coppice Road, Finchfield
This junction was the terminus of Wolverhampton Corporation trolleybus route 12; the trolleybuses turned left into Coppice Road (foreground), then reversed highly awkwardly across the oncoming traffic into Castlecroft Road (left distance) before heading back to town. The other reversing triangles on the Wolverhampton system were arranged so that the trolleybuses reversed into side streets on the nearside rather than out of them. The roundabout containing the very lush tree (right) was constructed on the site of the New Inn, which was demolished in the 1970s.

East end of Castlecroft Road, Finchfield
Heading west here, the road forks, with Castlecroft Road (foreground) diverging from Finchfield Road West. The junction was formerly a little way further east; the demolition of the New Inn in the 1970s allowed the installation of a roundabout, just out of frame to the right. The terminus of Wolverhampton Corporation trolleybus route 12 was about here; the trolleybuses turned left into Coppice Road (to the right of the photographer), then reversed highly awkwardly across the oncoming traffic into Castlecroft Road before heading back to town. The other reversing triangles on the Wolverhampton system were arranged so that the trolleybuses reversed into side streets on the nearside rather than out of them.

The Spinney
A rather fine example of early 20th century Arts & Crafts design, built in 1907 by the architect William Johnson Harrison Weller, originally as a house for a local man. It has been in use at times as a restaurant and lay empty for much of the 1990s and early 2000s, but is now converted to apartments. Grade II listed https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101262152-the-spinney-tettenhall-wightwick-ward#.Y2mQ43bP3IU & https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1262152 in 1994.
