Ladies that Lunge Finding Inspiration in Each Other As a committee, we are an eclectic bunch with interests and experience in many areas. Catherine Bailey, one of our members voiced she would like to see an adult gym on Abbey Park a few years ago and for a long time the idea sat on the back burner, non of us really knowing how to go about it. When the old Abbey Depot was knocked down we were made aware of funding that could be used to facilitate our plan and we worked with Rushcliffe Borough Council on the design and plans. Below you can see some of the photos of the Gym installation which happened in Summer of 2025. See the transformation Our Story From the day the Gym was installed some of us were itching to get started but we couldn't help feeling slightly intimidated and silly using the equipment on out own, so we decided to pop a post on Abbey Park Local to see if any other women wanted to join us and so our group was formed. As we all lead busy lives the meetings are open to anyone that can make them. They don't have to come regularly (but it helps them if they do). We meet every Tuesday & Saturday from 11am til midday. If you would like to join us, please do get in touch by emailing abbeypark.ng@gmail.com best of all, its FUN & FREE!

A once proud building, the Pumping Station was sadly demolished before we could object to its demise. Image courtesy of Simon Middlecote APCA Image courtesy of Lesley Morris APCA For up to date information, please Click here to visit the RBC Planning Application page The demise of our pumping station. Sadly, this year saw the demolition of one of the oldest buildings in West Bridgford. Our very own Abbey Road Pumping Station , to make way for much needed new housing. Incredibly, the plans of the pumping station were found in a skip! The drawings, which date from 1901, revealed the station at the Abbey Road depot was built in 1886 and it is hoped that they will be sent to the County Archives for safe storage as they show how West Bridgford has developed over time, having housed a pumping station, a bus depot, a council refuse depot and even a mortuary! The depot site actually featured a number of other historic structures that were built slightly after 1900/1901. The whole development was built to treat the refuse of Bridgford which included a destructor, that burnt solid waste. The clinker from that was then used under the roads of West Bridgford. There were stables and cart sheds, cottages for on-site staff and offices, and the site dealt with the waste and refuse of the people and businesses of Bridgford. Abbey Park Residents Association’s - Simon Middlecote, liaised with Rushcliffe Borough Councillors in the hope that the pumping station could at least be saved and repurposed as a community hub, but unfortunately, this was not to be. Going... Going... An aerial view of the site before demolition Gone!

Scan QR code to go to the South County Facebook Page Every now and again, we receive items that elude to the history of Abbey Road and its surroundings. We were more than grateful to obtain this wonderful photograph of a class of students with their teachers at South County School, (now West Bridgford Junior School) on Exchange Road from Keith who grew up on Abbey Road. The photograph is circa 1952. Below is a list of the adults and children, some whom we believe to have passed away. However, you may remember the names yourself if you are of a certain age. On a personal note and having worked at West Bridgford Junior School for 25 years until I took early retirement, I can see that this photograph was taken on the back wall of the playground next to what I knew to be the P.E. shed on the right of the picture. It was recently made into a rather lovely classroom. Back row : Miss Ford/Harrison?
