Winton, former fire station
On Wimborne Road, showing an attention to detail not found in modern stations. Behind the central gate is a courtyard; left and right, with stone surrounds, public conveniences, now closed, as is the case with most of Bournemouth's conveniences.

Winton: former fire station, former toilets
The demolition of the neighbouring building offers a rare view of the complete building. This was actually built as a combined fire station and public convenience (using the two front doors on either side) and closed in 1960 when
Image was opened. It is now used as a storeroom. The toilets themselves closed in 2007.
The history of the building is told in detail here: http://www.wintonforum.co.uk/firehistory.html

Bournemouth : Winton - Chicken Delite
Every time I pass this on Wimborne Road I wonder why it's spelled wrong - it's not like they don't have enough space.

Winton: The Famous Old Pines
This was The Pines until it underwent a refurbishment in 1999 and tried to become a pre-club bar type place (although there are no nearby nightclubs). It has since reverted from its new name of The Glasshouse, back to the Pines, but with an odd "Famous Old" bit added. It is at 475 Wimborne Road, on the corner of Luther Road.
