The first ten metres of the original country lane that existed prior can still be seen close to where the much-awaited Thornton by-pass is being built now. Incidentally, I stand corrected. The 53 went to Netherton Village and the 53A went to Netherton (Magdalene Square).

For our younger viewers that map also gives a clear indication as to how extensive bus services were prior to deregulation. Whether we ever get back to that level of service under the proposed re-regulation of bus services I doubt, but we may see some defunct destinations back on the blinds one day.
