A small cul-de-sac of houses off Hillcrest Road - both are, indeed, at the crest of the hill; it goes steeply downhill on Priory View Road just to our left here. The sign is the standard Bournemouth nameplate from the 1980s, affixed with tubular steel which protrudes at each side. Unusually, there is no no-through-road sign either alongside or incorporated in the nameplate itself. This is photo no.198 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.
