Dist:0.1km<br/>Small gothic-style church from 1867, it is now out of use and it looks as if interior demolition may already be under way.

Dist:0.1km<br/>Nottingham had a very progressive approach to library provision with a number of quite substantial suburban locations at the end of the 19th century, many of which survive in use. In most cases the space is now used to provide ancillary book storage alongside the continuing lending facilities.

Dist:0.2km<br/>When it opened, around 1980, this Cooperative superstore was very much a flagship. However, the location was never really ideal, and it never seemed to be particularly busy, and it finally closed just a few weeks before this picture was taken.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Roundels on the white panels of the pillars have the monogram NCS, but even without them this frontage has all the hallmarks of having been a Co-op store. It ceased to be one when the superstore [[1197042]] on the opposite side of the road was opened, and has since had a variety of occupants, that last one being a charity. It has been unoccupied for some months now and I feel it unlikely that either it or its successor will find new occupants.

Dist:0.2km<br/>I don't think that this building was originally a church, and it certainly looks disused again now.
