Dist:0.1km<br/>We look from Alder Road along a small cut-through to Sheringham Road, no doubt where traffic would once have been allowed. The box is emptied finally at 5:30pm on weekdays and at 11:30am on Saturdays.

Dist:0.1km<br/>Bit of a grey day, the leaves are falling, and the road in view is Alder Road.

Dist:0.1km<br/>Going south the A3040, Alder Road, runs dead straight, descending a steep hill for the third time before making a third steep ascent. Anyone who has cycled its length will testify to its steepness, lest it should appear deceptively tame in the picture.

Dist:0.2km<br/>An impressively lit bungalow, one of the many properties in Runton Road to put on a colourful festive display. For other pictures taken here tonight, see http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=4775002

Dist:0.2km<br/>Many of the houses in the cul-de-sac Runton Road put on a colourful display during the festive season, attracting a fair flow of visitors. For other pictures taken here tonight, see http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=4775002

Dist:0.2km<br/>I nominate this one as a candidate. Thetford Road is so short that it only requires six white lines down its entire length. It is named, like its neighbours, after Norfolk towns, although no properties have a Thetford Road postal address (the two near corner houses are in Yarmouth Road and the farther two in Sheringham Road). It is not a segment of a road which continues beyond some barrier – this is all there is of it. A strong counterclaim to this title will be found at: [[212554]], and another at: [[650836]].
