Northbourne is mostly decent, desirable detached houses and bungalows, and it is the latter that we see in the roads around Dolphin Avenue. The unusual name bears no obvious resemblance to the other names around here: Wakefield, Glamis, Pengelly, Brierley, Palfrey and Alderley are the nearest neighbours. The sign dates from 2010-15 when this more modern, abstract emblem rather than the traditional town coat of arms as the working logo of the council. This is photo no.109 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.
