Looking northwest along this road towards the western edge of the large 1950s West Howe council estate. The houses are readily recognisable council semi-detached houses. 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 somewhat here, although the white surface is intact where others have peeled quite badly. This is photo no.160 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.
