Bear Cross: Duck Lane
Image: © Chris Downer Taken: 16 Apr 2020
A road around the periphery of the West Howe housing estate that manages to retain a rural feel. It contains a couple of blocks of council flats at the other end, opposite the entrance to Oak Academy, the local secondary school. The road sign is a mini version of the standard one from around 2005, such as at Image, but the top half of the sign is blank, rather than containing the logo. As this sign would face the sun only in the morning, I doubt that it has faded when the rest of the sign is fine! This is photo no.116 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.
