Glenmeadows Drive is a cul-de-sac of houses from probably the 1970s, off Kinson Road. Griffiths Gardens, referred to on the sign, is more modern. 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: the blue border is often the first to go, but that is in reasonably good nick on this one, although the same cannot be said for the white surface. The additional message below the street name was always written in the smaller, sanserif type. This is photo no.163 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.
