SZ0696 : Bear Cross: Linmead Drive

taken 5 years ago, near to Kinson, Bournemouth, Christchurch & Poole, England

Bear Cross: Linmead Drive
Bear Cross: Linmead Drive
This short in-fill cul-de-sac off Anstey Road abuts the back of the even-numbered houses in the 1650s/1660s of Wimborne Road. The houses in Linmead Drive itself are therefore only around the dead end and southern side. It arrives on the local street plan in about 1980.

The sign is the standard Bournemouth nameplate from the 1980s, affixed with tubular steel which protrudes at each side. It is surprising that a no-through-road sign is not either incorporated into the sign or standing alongside it, both of which are common arrangements.

This is photo no.245 of a series of 453 in my coronavirus lockdown walking project:
