The street is filled with flags, with the St George's Cross hanging off every lamppost and house. Red and white bunting criss-crosses the road, showing the community's support for England.

Community spirit

Tom Leonard, who started the initiative, said it had "brought all the community together". People are watching the games outside with projectors, and kids are loving it.

Fan expectations

Sylvia Leonard, 72, said there was a great community spirit in the road and everybody was hoping England made it to the final. If they get there, there'll be a big party down the street. The community has spent more than £250 decorating the street, hoping the flags and support will help England lift the World Cup.
