IMAGES TAKEN NEAR TO
Maclean Road, BOURNEMOUTH, BH11 8EP

Looking along the southeast end of public footpath U08 as it heads for Maclean Road, with Springwater Road facing us in the background. See Image for the view behind us, and Image for the view towards us from the road ahead. Many of the footpaths on the West Howe estate and thereabouts have been given names in the last couple of years, a safety initiative whose intention is that, in the event of calling for help, one's location can be more easily described. This one has been named Heathlands Walk, after the primary school serving the estate, just a minute's walk beyond the end of the path (see Image).

One of those grass-lined paths which are quite common in council estates of the era, this one is towards the west of the large 1950s West Howe estate. It links Maclean Road (where we are standing) and Mandale Road (ahead). It is a public footpath, and is discussed in more detail in this wider view from behind us: Image – including the fairly recent naming of such paths. 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.

This road taken opposite the junction with Gladdis Road leads to Turbary Park Avenue.

Andrews Close is a cul-de-sac off Springwater Road in the heart of the large West Howe council estate. It leads to Heathlands Primary School (now Heathlands Primary Academy) which can be seen facing us at the dead end. The sign is a modern one, from around 2010 when the borough introduced this more modern, abstract emblem rather than the traditional town coat of arms.
