A small cul-de-sac off Moorside Road, hence the name, Moorside Close actually takes the course of one of the original tracks when this was all fields, before the large 1950s West Howe council estate was built: Behind us to the right is Ericksen Road, while at the top of the hill ahead is a path onto the eastern leg of Tedder Road, which continues diagonally into Mount Road – and that whole route is recognisable, when looking at older maps, as an original track or lane. The sign is the standard Bournemouth nameplate from the 1980s, affixed with tubular steel which protrudes at each side. This is photo no.281 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.
