The sign on the left announces humps for 780 yards if you turn right into Christchurch Road, whereas there are only 20 yards of humps if you turn left into St Julians Road. The view is from Clevedon Road. A curiosity is that adjacent houses viewed here are numbered 153, 155, 147, 149. The explanation is that 153 and 155 are at the end of St Julians Road. Christchurch Road, which began at the junction of Duckpool Road, now resumes at 147 after a short break at 145 about 50 metres away.
