John Young wonders if this Transport for Greater Manchester bus stop, at Fiveways in Hazel Grove, might have the highest-placed flag plate in the country. If reason or rhyme governs its position, it certainly isn't to make it easy for anyone below double-deck bus height to read. 'Maybe it's a high-level repeater stop, similar to railway signalling practice at particular locations where sight was impeded,' John suggests, clinging to high lamp standards if not straws.
