Godwinscroft Signpost

This finger post at the junction of Lyndhurst Rd and Croft Rd points the routes to Highcliffe, Lymington, Burton, Christchurch and Nea Croft. On old maps it is also spelt Nea Croft but on new maps it is Neacroft. On the old maps Godwinscroft is spelt Godwin's Croft. The boards and signpost also have stickers indicating that it is on National Cycle Route 2. The signpost appears to be made of cast iron and the finger boards each have a serrated top edge which is not sharp enough to deter perching birds but may stop hooligans swinging on them.
