Although this road is called “Greenwich Way” and opposite is “Meridian Park” there is no indication of exactly where the Meridian passes. This picture was taken standing on the Bradley Greenwich meridian looking North. The Greenwich Meridian passes straight through the middle, see this http://www.riddlerworld.co.uk/meridian/PG0140.htm for an alternate image with the meridian superimposed as a green line. The meridian cuts Greenwich Way and then continues north through the trees of Meridian Park. It’s not going to win POTY but it’s all about the position.
