The position of the sign, towards the middle rather than the point of the triangular pavement entrance, leaves us with just a glimpse of the bungalows that are to be found down there. The road sign is a standard one from around 2000-2006, perhaps a little earlier, featuring the borough coat of arms. A no-through-road sign is incorporated into the nameplate, whereas there would originally have been a standalone one on the vacant post to the left (see Image for an example of such arrangement). This is photo no.111 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.
