Street Art: Nottingham NG4 House Art Redux
Posted by alexkemp on 23 June 2016 in English. Last updated on 24 June 2016.I was eulogising about House Art in these Diaries last Sunday 19 June, starting with a fine example of etched glass set within Leaded Lights in Hillview Road. The following day I set off on a long trek down the length of Foxhill Road West, followed by Central & East. Blow me down, but it was not very long before another superb example showed up:
It got worse. Halfway down was the Richard Herrod Sports Centre and, just beyond it, a former golf course recently converted into a housing estate. Every single house had a similar front door!
A little earlier was a more light-hearted example of this species: a house with a red squirrel climbing up a metal fence:—
Excellent!

Alex, I followed your link to Richard Herrod Sports Centre. I noticed that in the opening_hours tag there is “Mo,Fr …” Is this correct ? Or did you mean “Mo-Fr” (the range) ?

https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/escada: thanks, escada, my bad. I’ve changed it to the range, and it will be uploaded shortly with some more little amendments to the parking areas + recent discovery of a boys/girls football changing rooms.
In fact, with a little exploration you could have sourced my error yourself: the Sports Centre link has a mapilliary link and, following connections to that photo would have brought you to another photo with a schoolboy-error as I photograph the opening hours + myself + the rain (English June weather is almost permanently “sunshine&showers”, as the folks at Glastonbury Music Festival are discovering at this moment).

Even when I wouldn’t been have lazy as I was now, and checked the opening_hours somehow, I would still had to let you know that you made a small mistake :-)
