IMAGES TAKEN NEAR TO
Knowlton Gardens, BOURNEMOUTH, BH9 3RB

Looking northeast along this suburban road of bungalows which abound in this immediate area. The sign is the standard Bournemouth nameplate from the 1980s, affixed with tubular steel which protrudes at each side. This is photo no.68 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.

Looking along the usually busy Castle Lane West at about 11 o'clock in the evening, past a banner for a boxing gym which occupies one of the premises on this parade.

Postbox No. BH9 279.

West Way is a tree-lined minor road in the northern suburbs of Bournemouth.

Cox Avenue is almost two roads: from Castle Lane West it heads roughly northeast for a while, and the driving priority of that segment morphs into the more modern Cox Close while a left turn is a continuation of Cox Avenue, northwest to Muscliffe Lane. It is a mix of houses and bungalows. We are looking at the sign on the inside of that 90º turn, confirming the street name both ahead and to the right. The sign is the standard Bournemouth nameplate from the 1980s, affixed with tubular steel which protrudes at each side.

Showing position of Postbox No. BH9 278.

This postbox used to be a few hundred yards southwest of here, outside Priory View Road Post Office. However, a while after that closed in 2004, the shop it was within followed suit and was demolished to make way for flats, while the postbox was moved to its present position.

Priory View Place is essentially a rear access lane to shops on Castle Lane West, between Priory View Road and Redbreast Road North, but it does have a couple of residential properties along it. It also forms public footpath M12. Here, we see an electricity compound - rather like the railings and warnings of a substation but the little enclosure seems only to consist of a little bush. There is a manhole cover too, but the railings seem rather over-the-top for that. See Image for the view along the lane from the far end, and Image for the next view behind us, with links to further views along the route.
