Broughton Avenue signs

Now that I have started taking a close look at local street signs I am finding more and more interesting ones and I think that these two in Broughton Avenue by the junction with Ashburnham Road are interesting.

The one above has limited interest on its own though it is rather worn, lacks the word "Ham", and is an inconvenient distance away from the junction.

On the other side of the road the sign is clearly different with the street name squeezed on to one line and with "Avenue" abbreviated to achieve this. Otherwise the signs look similar enough to suggest that they were installed in the same era.
