Wallisdown: Hood Crescent
Image: © Chris Downer Taken: 14 Apr 2020
Hood Crescent is an angular crescent off Kinson Road but with an additional arm, so shaped like an uppercase F (an upside-down F when seen on a map with north at the top). It is only this offshoot which falls within my 2km radius, and we therefore look along it from Acton Road. 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.204 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.
