Moordown: Marks Road

Image: © Chris Downer Taken: 17 Apr 2020

One of numerous east-west roads which run from Wimborne Road across The Avenue to The Grove – except that Marks Road is the only one which is a dead end. It runs east from The Avenue, almost but not quite reaching Wimborne Road. It is, however, typical of the area in having decent detached houses form the early 20th century. The sign is the standard Bournemouth nameplate from the 1980s, affixed with tubular steel which protrudes at each side. This is photo no.263 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.
