Moordown: Carey Road

Carey Road is one of the criss-cross roads of Moordown, with The Grove running up the west side, The Avenue up the middle, and the main Wimborne Road forming the east side. Carey Road forms an exception, running parallel between The Grove and The Avenue for one segment, while all the others run east-west to form many squares. All the roads have in common these desirable suburban detached houses. The sign is of a simple design which was produced in great numbers, I believe at the back end of the 1980s, and quite a few remain. This is photo no.59 of a series of 453 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.
