One of those 'crescents' that is not actually a crescent but a straightforward dead end – although it does have a semicircular green in its middle at the far end. It is also unusual in that the house numbering commences at the dead end rather than at the entry. 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.197 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.
