West Howe: Moore Avenue
Image: © Chris Downer Taken: 11 Apr 2020
Seen here ascending from Poole Lane, Moore Avenue is one of the chief roads into the large, 1950s West Howe council estate, as attested by the bus stop (there is a more substantial one opposite, out of picture, with bus shelter). After the block of flats, more standard semi-detached council houses take over before more flats are found nearer the centre of the estate. The road sign is a standard one from around 2000-2006, perhaps a little earlier, featuring the borough coat of arms. This is photo no.279 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.
