Kingston Vale
Like New York New York it's the name of the road and the area, but in London SW15 rather than Surrey like the rest of Kingston.

Richmond Park: Robin Hood Gate
This gate allows access to the park for pedestrians, cyclists and horse riders, but not for the general public in motor vehicles, at its south eastern corner by the A3. At one time motor traffic was allowed through but southbound traffic was stopped some time ago and from 2003 northbound traffic has been prohibited too.
The black plate on the left side brick pier gives distances in miles and yards to the other gates in the park.

Ancient direction sign on Robin Hood Gate
The sign is probably Victorian and could be Britain's oldest direction sign besides the many surviving fingerposts. I have since been told the distance for Kingston Gate is more than Ham Gate is because the original direct road has since been closed to traffic.

The A3 at the junction of Kinsgston Vale

The A3 at the junction of Kingston Vale
There is no right turn from Kingston Vale, so traffic wishing to turn south to the A3 must go north and take the underpass at Putney Vale and turn round to join the southbound carriageway. I imagine this came in once the underpass was built and previously this would probably have been a full junction, possibly using the large central reservation ahead as a roundabout.

Ramped footbridge over the A3
The footbridge is at the "Robin Hood" junction of the A3 dual carriageway (where it becomes the Kingston Bypass) and the old Kingston Road. Another photograph for this square - Image - is obviously taken from this bridge.
