This is the scene at 12:00 GMT on Christmas Day 2011, at the junction with Birchwood Road. The mild autumn and early winter continues. It is 10°C, cloudy but bright, dry, and there is a force 3 breeze from the west*. Contrast this with last year's image. Link

The houses are probably 1920s built. Further down the road, buildings are a little older. A public footpath by the post box leads past Alexandra Road and through to Goldthorn Hill.

* Note: 90 minutes later and the sun was shining - a beautiful afternoon - feels like April (apart from the low angle of the sun)!!
