Northbourne: Headswell Avenue
Image: © Chris Downer Taken: 10 Apr 2020
Headswell Avenue is a longish road in the relatively well-to-do suburb of Northbourne, taking a course on the flat top of Red Hill before swinging in a big curve, as seen here, down the hill to meet Wimborne Road at an acute angle. The sharp left turn coming down the hill here onto Wimborne Road really is tight. The sign is from around 2000, and it morphed into another design, in blue rather than green and far more widely seen, including BOURNEMOUTH BOROUGH COUNCIL in smaller letters at the top, and the borough coat of arms on the left. This is photo no.185 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.
