Edinburgh Crescent at Bourne, Lincolnshire
The residential area built on farmland to the north east of Bourne as part of the housing boom following the Second World War brought extra streets and roads to the town. Queen's Road was under construction with Edinburgh Crescent adjoining in 1953, the year that Queen Elizabeth II was crowned in the company of her consort, the Duke of Edinburgh, and so the two names reflected this national celebration.

Cherry blossom in Queen?s Road, Bourne, Lincolnshire

Bourne Academy at Bourne, Lincolnshire
This school has evolved through several stages during the advancement of secondary education in Bourne which began in Abbey Road in the 19th century. The present site in Edinburgh Crescent was acquired during a move to temporary buildings in 1946 and a continued programme of construction, improved facilities, increased staffing levels and name changes have created this modern educational complex known since October 2011 as Bourne Academy.

Beware of pedestrians
This is the 1960s central building and school hall of what used to be the Robert Manning school, and is now the Bourne Academy.
According to the sign, the pedestrians can be dangerous. I do hope our language is taught a little better inside.
