The hub, the centrepiece, the focal point – choose whichever word you like: Cunningham Crescent is the heart of the large 1950s West Howe council estate and it runs a complete 360º ring around the estate's main shopping parade, which we see here. The sign is from around 2000, and it morphed into another design, in blue rather than green and far more widely seen, including BOURNEMOUTH BOROUGH COUNCIL in smaller letters at the top, and the borough coat of arms on the left. This is photo no.98 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.
