Northbourne: Emma Close

A small infill development of bungalows in the back gardens of some houses in The Broadway. I've noticed that quite a few of these have names which are girls' forenames: Jenni Close and Samantha Close are two other nearby examples. The sign is a modern one, 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.131 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.
