IMAGES TAKEN NEAR TO
Delamere Gardens, BOURNEMOUTH, BH10 6AA

A short dead-end road off Redhill Drive, facing onto Redhill Park which is behind us, across the road. Beyond the back gardens of the houses each side, we can glimpse the desirable detached housing of Delamere Gardens, typical of the area. The road sign is a standard one from around 2000-2006, perhaps a little earlier, featuring the borough coat of arms. The incorporated no-through-road sign is a common arrangement, and for good measure the message is reinforced with the word CUL-DE-SAC in small type at the bottom. This is photo no.106 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.

Often written as two words, Hill View Road is correctly spelled as three. It is seen here from its eastern end, opposite Redhill Common, and it heads past Hill View Primary School and the shopping parade New Parade in this first segment, before arcing to face northwest and come to an end at a dead end, one of the longest dead ends after the last turn-off. The corner house on the left once housed Redhill Drive Post Office, before it moved into New Parade in the mid-1990s. 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. They are more often seen under perspex and mounted on two posts, but this one is affixed to the tall pole.

A crossing on Redhill Drive which allows people to cross a lot easier.

Houses on the western side of Redhill Drive look out onto this grassy part of the common. Immediately behind us we enter a long narrow strip of woodland.
