Derby streets by Car pt 15, More Alvaston

Andy's Driving videos around Derby, Derbyshire, UK :
Are you an ex-pat of Derby, feeling homesick? Or perhaps you just want a clear way of giving someone directions to a location in Derby or just want to show people your Derby Street. Well in this video and the many others I have made, you will be able to take a virtual drive around the city of Derby's streets as though you were in the driving seat. I use a dash-mounted camera, Traffic lights and heavy traffic have been edited out.

I was really surprised to see the house where I grew up, it brought back many happy memories. Thanks for taking the time to make this.

Another great video Andy. Even better since it contains the last view of my car that went to the scrappers in July.

Keep up the good work

Victory road? Rolls Royce factory down there.. i dont know of victoria rd, Brighton Rd from 02:02 - 03:41, at 03:41 is london rd and there is a park just there with a BMX track, there is an infant school there now and a re-vamped BMX track. tbh i think alvaston along with most places has gone downhill, the pubs are full of chavs and alkies. i wouldnt rush back to visit m8

[ScouseTimes]

and the reoad i think was called Victoria road? or maybe brighton rd not sure.

There was a lot of building going on in 1998 so i probably wont remember anything in your videos ;-( is there any way of finding out

any info for me? would love to visit Alvaston

again and do the mile of pubs lol great vids keep it up.

I remember back in 1992 I got a job in Alvaston I love the place and the people are

great I think the time i spent in Alvaston

was one of the best times i have ever had in my life. I worked for a dodgy security firm

as a supervisor. I wish I could meet up with the people i worked with A ll i can remember

is theoffice was next to a park.
