Muscliff: Cox Close

Image: © Chris Downer Taken: 12 Apr 2020

Cox Close is the grey line which separates the original mid-20th-century housing of Muscliff and the vast early-1980s estate. It is accessed off Cox Avenue, and is the only road on the more modern estate to be named after one of the older roads. It comes to a dead end ahead of us but has pedestrian access to the similar dead end of Moreton Close - all the roads behind us on the large estate are named after Dorset villages. The sign is really most useful for the pedestrian arriving here from the path that runs left-to-right across the picture. It is a modern one, probably put up in the last five years or so when the borough dropped its logo from street nameplates.
