Neighbours have spoken of their relief that no one was hurt after a 'hefty wall' fell during a storm during Storm Franklin.
The wall, in the back garden of a property on Oxborough Road, in Daybrook, collapsed on the evening of February 20 during Storm Franklin, local residents said.
Bricks and fencing panels were left scattered across the path on Oxclose Lane, which the wall backs onto.
The debris was later cleared up by local residents and Gedling Borough Council.
Glenn Brownow, 54, who lives on nearby Bestwood Lodge Drive, was surprised to see the damage done to the property.
And he said the incident could have caused significant harm to anyone who was walking along the path at the time.
"Bloomin' hell, I did not think it would have been that bad," he said.
"The weather was awful. It was very windy, but that is a shock.
"It is fortunate that no one was walking along at the time, it's a hefty wall and that would have been trouble; it would have done them some real harm.
"Even after it had fell I imagine it would have been dangerous at night time if people did not see it properly in the dark.
"I feel very sorry for the person who lives there as they've now got to fix that through no fault of their own."
Others said that it was the most damage they had seen Storm Franklin create in the area, the storm having brought high winds which caused flooding across the county.
Sarah Lowater, 53, a machinist who lives across the road from the affected house, said: "I did not know that it had been that badly damaged.
"I am surprised at how much has come down, it was good that it fell at night-time from what I can see, as people would have been walking past in the day.
"Like everywhere, it was very windy but that's the first thing I have seen that has been knocked over around here."
According to a neighbour, local people came out to help clear the path on Oxclose Lane and were later assisted by Gedling Borough Council.
A resident at a neighbouring property, who asked not to be named, said: "The path next to where the wall fell onto the road is usually quite busy and so is the road, so it's lucky that no one was hurt.
"I had to ring my neighbour to tell them that it had gone over. It took four of us to move parts of it off the path and then the council came.
"All our walls were built at the same time and I was wondering after that if ours was going to come down too."
Nottinghamshire Live attempted to contact the residents of the property for comment.
Storm Franklin continued to cause disruption to travel and parks across the city were closed on Monday (February 21) and trains and buses were affected.
It came in the wake of Storm Dudley which caused trees to fall in Mansfield and Ruddington, as well as onto a home in Wollaton.
While Storm Eunice caused significant damage to Basford United's Greenwich Avenue stadium, as winds reached more than 50mph across Nottinghamshire on Friday (February 18).
