A bleak afternoon wasn't really conducive to landscape photography but a little long exposure and a polarising filter made the best of the situation.

The exact purpose of the tower on this house is unknown. However, because Blyth Street is at one of the highest points in Mapperley, the view south east over Thorneywood towards the city must have been, and still will be, tremendous.

With no work for me during my split on 17th February 2021, I settled down for a boring day of waiting around before my afternoon stint, and took a wander around the Garage to see what was in.

 

915 is particularly important to me as a busman, as the first NCT bus I drove at Langar Aerodrome, and the bus in which I passed my test on 17th December 2020 after a nail-biting drive around Netherfield, Mapperley, Sherwood and the Nottingham Ring Road which saw me pass first time with only a minimal number of 'minors'.

26th May 2021 at Stanton Gate. 66105 trundles up the Mapperley Goods Branch with the first DB Cargo train to the scrap loading facility on the site of the former Stanton Works. 6M63, 03.17 from Immingham.

Myself and Allison were joined by Matt (mattcawrey) and Jo for a very pleasant morning at Derbyshire Wildlife Trust Mapperley Woods Reserve. Thanks for a good morning guys.

Just about as unclassic a "Nutty" pose as you can get!! A total miss-shot but I quite like the end result.

A few of these seem to have usurped the Jays down at Mapperley Wood hide.

Now that there are a lot more biogas routes and no spares ordered this year (as of yet), diesel spares are becoming more common on biogas routes. 601 is an example, seen here on Sky Blue 45 to Gedling via Mapperley.

Sandwiched between two other Biogas vehicles is 438, arriving from Woodborough Road, Mapperley and Gedling.

Mapperley Gate Junction was on the mineral line between Stanton Gate and the Shipley Colliery . I really do not know much about the place but I took the picture back in 1984 on a frosty winter's day early in the year, most probably in the January .

A lard and peanut baited tree lured in this young lady.

I know a lot don't but I like them. Demonised through no fault of their own.

Mapperley Wood.

This former lodge is in a sorry state, which is a shame in view of its architectural style etc. It was once a gatehouse/lodge as part of the Mapperley Hospital site. (GT Hine was the son of TC Hine, and designed Mapperley hospital and several other similar establishments.)

The church was built as a daughter church to St. Ann's Church, Nottingham between 1869 and 1871 by William Knight, and extended by S. R. Stevenson in 1884.

 

Its website says it is an outreach centre for the poor in Nottingham and has specific concerns with duty of care to the prostitutes as they work not far from the church. I know round the back of the church, there are some really nice False Acacias.

 

The adress is 1 Chestnut Grove, NG3, and it sits right on the brow of Mansfield road with views right across the city, to the left is Mapperley park, further down the hill is St. Annes, with the boundary adjacent to the city centre and across the road going down the Hill is a cemetery and then the Forest recreation ground, famous for hosting the GOOSE FAIR.

 

The Forest recreation Ground is a Victorian park with promenades with a section designated for a childrens adventure playground too. The Nottingham Tram system stops at the Forest ground on the other side to where this picture was taken.

This Jay is doing well to survive, it is at least two years old. Lets hope he or she get through the next winter OK.

Featuring a suttle fading filter, this signpost is one of many that draws me in to experiment with different angled views.
