Bear Cross: Holloway Avenue

Image: © Chris Downer Taken: 16 Apr 2020

Holloway Avenue forms a main route at the western side of the large West Howe 1950s council estate and then continues to the main Ringwood Road outside of the estate, hence the bungalows - patently not council housing - that we see here opposite the end of Duck Lane. 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. This is photo no.202 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.
