Second pair are of Egremont, Seabank Road showing the entrance to the Mariner's Park. Mariner's Park was started in 1880 by William Cliff in memory of his daughter and opened in 1882 with just two cottage homes - extending to near 90 units today

It's probably because the road is quite a "fast" one (not legally) and the bends can take people by surprise, especially in the wet when doing excessive speed.

Of course, NOW if they found it was full of bats then they would slap a preservation order on the place. The bat population is declining rapidly and fair enough they do need preserving. I bet there are LOADS in that big old house next door
