The sign stands on a triangle between the 45º-angle pavement turning into the road, and the main pavement of New Road on which we stand. Well-to-do bungalows are the order of the day here; the road turns 90º to the left ahead, to run parallel with the River Stour, and the gardens of the bungalows along the back edge run right down to the riverbank. 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.173 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.
