Gables down to the ground
An unusual style of architecture on West Town Lane. These houses were a relatively late addition to the housing stock as most of the rest on the road is Inter-war period.

Arbour Walk
The new care home complex is a few years old but sits at the junction of Hungerford Road and Yelverton Road. Previously the site had been a post-war industrial area. One clue that it is a care home is the fact that the car park has a dedicated space for ambulance parking.

Crossing the Brislington Brook
A small footbridge links the two inter-war suburban housing areas as the brook bisects them. However, this footbridge has a history that goes back well over a century to when all this was fields.

The Brislington Brook
The small stream rises not too far away but can generate some heavy flows - hence the pronounced use of concrete in this suburban area - but not in the current dry spell.

Crosses the Brislington Brook at the bottom of the hill.
Local schools have recently disgorged their charges. They were all so polite, found it most offputting. Made me feel old.

Food differs in the lockdown
These shops along West Town Lane demonstrate some essential differences of their operation during lockdown. The chippy on the left is shut whilst the pizza outlet is open - presumably due to the latter having a delivery service. Even the solicitor's shop has gone for good.
