A traditional telegraph pole, Turner Avenue, Lincoln
Dated 1957, featuring ring-head distribution (with insulators) and a wood finial, both very rare features today but strangely in great abundance in this particular estate. I spotted seven poles with ring-heads and/or finials in this single estate.

Mural at the Round Shops, Moorland Avenue
This colourful mural is the result of a community project where local young people worked on designs to be painted at the end of the "round shops"*. Local residents chose their favourites from the designs submitted.
*So-called because the parade of shops is built in a semi-circle around the corner that it is located on.

Shopping parade Turner Avenue/Moorland Avenue
The curve gives a hint of elegance to an otherwise unexceptional design.

A diagonal ("X") pedestrian crossing, Boultham, Lincoln
I had never encountered anything like this before, where pedestrians can cross to the opposite corner of the crossroads, as well as across each individual road. Not knowing how this system worked at the time, and dissuaded by the busyness of the junction and lack of tactile paving, I proceeded the 'normal' way. I know now, of course, that this is an actual thing which exists.
