A little late-70s or early 80s development. The house number, 1376a, can only belong to Bournemouth's longest road, Wimborne Road. This row of houses is similar to those in Graycot Close itself, although semi-detached rather than detached, so is probably part of the same development. (If the houses are smaller than those they replaced, that might explain the 'a' suffix.) 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. The no-through-road sign is incorporated into the nameplate. This is photo no.171 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.
