Acton Road is a dead-end road beyond this last junction, following a 90º left turn which can be seen in the background. Behind us are houses, including some older cottages, while ahead it is bungalows. The sign is the standard Bournemouth nameplate from the 1980s, affixed with tubular steel which protrudes at each side. It is in pretty good condition for its age although the no-through-road sign to the right has almost faded to nothing. Its message is helpfully repeated on a lamppost. This is photo no.4 of a series of 451 in my coronavirus lockdown walking project: See https://www.geograph.org.uk/article/My-2020-Coronavirus-Lockdown-walking-project for the complete set of photos.
