Heather Drive signs Lots of signs at the entrance to Heather Drive, a private road (cul-de-sac) off Onslow Road. The top sign denotes the route is a public footpath, though is very faded. The next sign gives the speed limit as 20mph. The next is a road sign of the name "HEATHER DRIVE". Underneath is a sign showing that the road is a dead end and a private road: "PRIVATE ROAD RESIDENT PARKING ONLY". The bottom sign says "CCTV IN USE" with an image of a camera - I wonder if the CCTV is GDPR compliant!
