The road junction that gives the area its current name. As suggested the roundabout in the middle is the meeting point for seven roads; Dyke Road (A2010), Buckingham Place (A2010), Chatham Place (B2120), Vernon Terrace (B2122), Davigdor Road (B2120) and Prestonville Road the only non main road. This view looks east taking in Chatham Place to the left and Buckingham Place to the right. The building between them is a former bank that is now currently a restaurant having briefly been an unsuccessful Burger King outlet. The wide space to the left once accommodated trams connecting Chatham Place and Dyke Road out of picture to the left.
