Dist:0.7km<br/>The Blue Pool was opened in May 1936. It was the third of three pubs with identical designs to be opened in Derby by the local brewers Offilers (Now part of the Bass group). The other pubs sharing the same art deco style design, resembling ocean liners, were The Blue Peter at Alvaston ([[[2570842]]]), which opened in January 1935 and The Blue Boy at Chaddeston ([[[80261]]]) which opened in January 1936. The Blue Pool was converted (http://www.thisisderbyshire.co.uk/Fear-store-giant-looks-pub-conversion-moves/story-11562290-detail/story.html )and reopened as a Tesco Express store in March 2010. For a picture of it as a pub, see [[[80286]]]. Also, http://www.derbyphotos.co.uk/areas_i_o/normanton.htm for more information about the pub.

Dist:0.9km<br/>The positive project by Strata Homes to provide affordable housing has stalled due to the credit crunch caused by banks. Result is the destruction through arson by other anti-social elements of the hope of decent people for another decent place to live in Sinfin. The unfinished houses are on Goodsmoor Road which serves as a link between the area where affluent people of Derby live and their work and shopping places in the less affluent but more productive areas of Derby.
