SK4732 : Ruskin Avenue

taken 18 years ago, near to Sawley, Derbyshire, England

Ruskin  Avenue
Ruskin Avenue
In the 1940s there were a number of roads only about 100 yards long, off Wilsthorpe Road. Since then the M1 motorway has been constructed to the west and in the latter half of the last century those short roads were extended and linked resulting in a large housing estate now filling the intervening area. Trees and flowers in the gardens are now softening the landscape and giving the estate a more mature feel.
