Winton: postbox № BH9 195, Frampton Road
This George V-reign postbox serves typical Bournemouth suburbia, and is in Frampton Road close to its junction with Green Road (left to right) and Murley Road (seen in the distance).

Winton: snowy rooftops
Looking down Murley Road, which turns into Frampton Road in the bottom of the dip, with white rooftops all around.
Two days after heavy snow earlier in the week had all thawed, this fresh lot fell from the north this morning, despite the fact that the day started rainy, with large puddles all around.
By nightfall, the main carriageways of all roads were clear of snow and ice, so this was a very heavy fall considering that it started and had almost disappeared on the same day.

Winton: aging kerbstones in Murley Road
This is one of the very few roads to still have these primitive kerbstones and gutters. We moved into our house nearby in 1987 and ours were updated fairly soon after.

Charminster: Acland Road
Acland Road is typical of the side streets on this stretch of Charminster: seemingly endless lines of gables curving into the distance, built in the 1920s, before the need for parking was foreseen.

Winton: Green Road undergoes work
Major maintenance work in Green Road has closed the road from April to June 2008. This part, through housing built before the need for off-road parking was foreseen, is a tricky part for bus drivers on the route 24, which does a left turn followed shortly by a right (following the yellow road on the map), and queues often occur, short in terms of length but long in terms of time. The current diversion is no easier.

No parking beyond this point...
A close up of the signs accompanying these roadworks (see
