Northbourne: Fletcher Road
Image: © Chris Downer Taken: 11 Apr 2020
A short east-west road linking Howeth Road and Green Lane, used occasionally as a sort of cut-through – only occasionally because this is one of those areas where none of the roads goes fully between any of the major roads so you have to keep doing a left-right, and it would possibly have been just as quick therefore to stick to the bigger roads in the first place! The sign is of a design that became prevalent in Bournemouth around 1990 and was in use for most of that decade. Many are starting to look a bit shabby now, and the blue border has faded to nothing on this one. This is photo no.145 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.
