Ot - The A 52.

Very sad - The Wollaton Park gatehouse & The River Leen which is now the A 52 to Derby with bus lanes & the River Leen but a trickle.

Now that is obscure and OT !!

Why’s it sad...cars go much better along roads than rivers...or is it the bus lanes that sadden you?

I nearly bought that back in the day. The building not the river

Fast roads only exist because we always seem to be in the wrong place & seeking the right one . A McDonalds in Derby is only the same as one is in Nottingham. The same with Asda & Tesco etc .....

God's Country ? Just off the A52 in the Derby. That is even sadder.

 

[Roger Ramjet]

Are you just here to take the piss out of Derby one way or the other? Why not say something constructive for a change or just f*** off elsewhere.

Tricky could never be more right about you really are prat arnt you

 

[ramAnag]

I’m just not sure what McDonalds, Tesco, Asda and a hopelessly outdated photo of Chaddesden Sidings have got to do with anything...quite bizarre!

Pretty good reference point for the progress made with that bit of wasteland though, something the Council got right IMO
