Very noisy at night when the wind blows but it's lovely. It's nice to see people smiling."It starts at my house and it just goes on and spreads through the street. "We go round to each other's houses to watch the games and you can hear the cheers when England score."Residents said everyone "chips in" to make the area feel specialResident Rich Baker, 62, was impressed with the amount of work put in.“This street is fantastic for patriotism," he said. He added: “All the neighbours chip in and get on board with the tournament, there isn’t one of us in the street who doesn’t help out. "If it’s the most patriotic street… we’ll certainly take that."Neighbour Mick Greensmith, 68, said: “It wasn’t easy but we did it together, we built it as a team and it gives us a fantastic street community which a lot of communities lack.“We don’t just do football tournaments, we do parties, birthdays, coronations. Any excuse to have a street party and bring the community together.“I get very emotional when I speak about the street and what we do, especially when it comes to the football."We all love it, we are a street that pulls together and the community feel is immense. Most people should take note, because it’s important."Follow BBC Nottingham on Facebook, on X, or on Instagram.
