crankypig 457 Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 Is the building in the Carlton precinct going to be pulled down? There is fencing round it.I think it was built late 60 s? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,488 Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 I don't think it's being demolished. According to the planning applications on Gedling Council website, the building is being converted into apartments (for real people rather than students). 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Martin Lock 31 Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 Am I right in remembering the armed forces used to park all their military vehicles on wasteland at the bottom of Carlton Hill, opposite Carlton square? When I lived near Parks Corner I remember watching the convoy of tanks trundling past. About 1977/8. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
