Winton: Muscliffe Road meets Calvin Road

Looking down the southernmost section of Muscliffe Road, which breaks the standard criss-cross pattern of roads by veering to the right on its way downhill. It continues up the other side, back parallel with its neighbours, as Ridley Road. Calvin Road crosses in the dip, behind the white van. Two days after heavy snow earlier in the week had all thawed, this fresh lot fell from the north this morning, despite the fact that the day started rainy, with large puddles all around. By nightfall, the main carriageways of all roads were clear of snow and ice, so this was a very heavy fall considering that it started and had almost disappeared on the same day.
