Bear Cross: Jenni Close
Image: © Chris Downer Taken: 16 Apr 2020
A small, modern development of bungalows behind back gardens of the main Wimborne Road. There are curiously many of these little infill developments in the area named after girls' names - Emma Close and Samantha Close are two that spring immediately to mind. This one has a very specific spelling rather than Jenny or Jennifer, so maybe they are named after daughters or wives of developers! The sign is a modern one, from 2010-15 but it is plain rather than featuring the usual council logo, perhaps signifying that it is a private road, unadopted by the council. This is photo no.214 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.
