Down to the main path The former railway alignment is crossed here by a main path linking the Wilford Hill (Compton Acres) estate with Ruddington Lane. The old embankment has already been cut away at this point, but it will be entirely removed for the proposed tramway extension to Clifton which will run at the normal ground level. There will be a tram stop at this location.
Flood markers on the Trent near Wilford The visible river level is marked at about 21 metres; the top mark of the right hand marker is 26 metres, a difference of 5 metres, but the modern defences have been built to anticipate even higher levels.
Wilford Village, The Green Not to be confused with Wilford Green, which is at the junction of main Road and Wilford Lane.

9/10 Wonderful! (1,001 reviews)
Hotel was nice and welcome was good. I was rudely awaken at 5am in my room from the sound of deliveries and recycling glass bottles which is awful considering the reason we use hotels is to sleep. It has completely ruined my day with work due to tiredness I am now facing. Not one at all
