Hemel Hempstead: The Magic Roundabout
Hemel's Magic Roundabout was constructed in 1973, a year after its counterpart in Swindon. It is formally known as The Plough Roundabout or Moor End Roundabout. Despite their reputation these roundabouts work well and it is doubtful if any driver using them regularly would think twice about them. The River Gade flows through the middle. This is an accidental retake from the same viewpoint of Giles' Image The one major change that seems to have taken place is the reconfiguration of the junction arrangements with the road bottom right.

Hemel Hempstead: Royal Mail Delivery Office
Presumably all mail with an HP* postcode gets delivered from the Royal Mail's Delivery Office here in Park Lane. The building has distinctive white clad roofs and walls. Although these must have looked brilliant on the architect's drawing board and when the building was first constructed, over time they have attracted a dark green fungal growth which makes the whole building look drab and dirty, far more so in some places on the cladding than is visible here.
