Thanks Marion. The style of the houses in Pendennis Park with their downstairs only bay windows match the ones in the photo. Looking at Streetview I think it is looking north towards Trelawney Park but the house at the end at an angle is in Hollywood Road. Also the last house on the left in the road which sticks out matches the house in the photo.
