Busy junction, St James Road
The island and road markings in the foreground are part of the junction 'complex' where St James Road is met by Twyford Avenue, Upper Shirley Avenue and Shirley Avenue (straight ahead). Presumably this was once a wide open 'free for all' when the suburb was new and cars were a rare.

St James Road from Howard's Grove
A view north-west along St James Road from the end of Howard's Grove. The paved front garden with low brick wall and roses is a classic of a certain era of 20th century suburban design. Someone has whited-out the ard' from the streetsign in the foreground. The apostrophe has been banished from the modern St James Road signs (sometimes St James's Road, sometimes St James' Road) and it is simply "St James Road" on the official Post Office/local council lists.
