This rather rurally named road runs between St. Margaret's Road and Talbot Rise, and has dwellings on only one side: they face the allotments which are on our right. It consists of bungalows, as is the norm for all the roads in the vicinity. The sign is of a design that became prevalent in Bournemouth around 1990 and was in use for most of that decade. Many are starting to look a bit shabby now, but this one is in good condition without any peeling white or fading blue. The additional arrow is because this is a 90º turn in the carriageway, rather than a junction as such. St. Margaret's Road that is to our left, with no other roads to right or behind. This is photo no.78 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.
