Ensbury Park: Carter Close
Image: © Chris Downer Taken: 14 Apr 2020
Carter Close is not so much a road in its own right, but more of a forecourt extending the dead end of Mabey Avenue. It is better appreciated from a wider view: Image It is one example of much infill development in many pockets of Ensbury Park. This one pocket includes Kings Close, which is accessed from Columbia Road, and there is apparently no access between the two. The sign is a modern one which seems to be council-made although it uses the Trebuchet typeface which the council ditched for its standard signs several years before the development was built. This is photo no.61 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.
